    This looks too good to pass! Have you tried it with ground turkey instead of beef? I am tempted to try it out!

      Yes you can. It is the barbecue sauce in this that really makes the recipe.

    Have you made these dairy free before? I’m trying to expand the menu items my dairy allergic toddler can have. Also, do you normally use quick oats or the more whole (rolled?) Oats? All the commercially made meatballs i have seen have dairy so I’ve never tried meatballs with him.

      We use quick oats. I have not made it dairy free but you could make a quarter of a batch and use water to replace the milk. The most that would probably happen is just that they would crumble more (although the eggs are the binder in this recipe) or the texture would be different.

      What is liquid smoke? Any alternatives if I can’t find it?

        Liquid smoke is a liquid usually found in with the bar b que sauces at WalMart and grocery stores. It has the best smokey bar b que flavor like from the grill. The only thing that you might use to replace it maybe is smoked paprika.

    I will try these this week – they sound really delicious.
    Jill, I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy all your videos. You and your daughter work well
    together (and your son-in-law, too). In this uncomfortable world we have been experiencing, your
    family is a true beacon of light and good feelings.
