Barbacoa Meatballs With Guac
From:Brandon and Megan Keatley @ www.health-bent.com/
I love barbacoa, but I usually don’t (a.k.a. never) have the foresight to stick a huge hunk of meat in the crock pot before I think, “Mannnnn, barbacoa sounds soooo good right now.” Yeah I could go to Chipotle and pick something up, but that would also mean I would need to have showered and look/smell somewhat presentable-ish, and I’m not always down for that. So here we have it; I can look like a scrub and eat the same flavors, in about 30 minutes.
Ingredients
For the Meatballs
2 pounds ground beef (use 80/20 or they may be dry)
2 teaspoons granulated garlic
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
2 teaspoons dried oregano
salt to taste
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
zest of 1 lime
For the Guacamole
2 ripe Haas avocados
juice of 1 lime
salt to taste
Method
Preheat your oven to 400ºF.
In a large bowl, thoroughly mix together all the meatball ingredients.
Use a cookie scoop to portion the meatballs into a 9×13 oven-safe baking dish.
Bake until cooked through, about 20-25 minutes.
Meanwhile, make the guacamole by smashing all the ingredients together.
