Ingredients

  • 1 pound 85% lean ground Beef
  • ½ cup Italian flavored bread crumbs
  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt divided
  • 1 Tablespoon dried parsley
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ¼ cup ketchup
  • 1 large egg slightly beaten
  • 1 medium red pepper cored, seeded and sliced into thin strips
  • 1 medium green pepper cored, seeded and sliced into thin strips
  • 1 large yellow onion peeled and thinly sliced
  • 3 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 slices Provolone cheese
  • 8 slider or Hawaiian rolls

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix together ground beef, bread crumbs, ¾ teaspoon salt (reserve the remaining ¾ teaspoon salt), parsley, black pepper, ketchup and egg. Mix until combined and form into 8 meatballs. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
  • Preheat gas grill to medium high heat.
  • Toss together the red and green peppers along with the onions and the olive oil in a grill pan or aluminum foil pan. Sprinkle with the remaining ¾ teaspoon salt. Place the pan on the grill and cook covered for about 15 minutes or until vegetables are tender and starting to brown.
  • While veggies are cooking, place 2 to 3 meatballs on wooden or metal skewers and place on hot grill. Cook covered for about 8 to 10 minutes, turning every few minutes and cook until meatballs are brown and internal temperature reaches 160 degrees.
  • Remove meatballs from skewers and top each meatball with ½ slice Provolone cheese. Let the cheese melt while meatballs are sitting in with the onions and peppers.
  • Slice rolls in half and place some onions and peppers on each slider roll half; top with meatballs and more onions and peppers. Top with remaining rolls. Serve with ketchup if desired.
