The wife and I LOVED this. The directions were spot on - broiling 9" below the heat source brought the meatballs to 160 degrees, just don't expect them to brown much. Some reviews complained about the salt - willing to be they didn't pay attention to it being Kosher salt and used table salt.

I just read through this. I agree with you bmillin about the reviewers’ salt comments. Especially coming from the ones that stated the meatballs made from (all) pork were to porky flavored. 🤦🏼♀️
I made this after Christmas, when I needed a break from the heavy meats. I put a photo in one of the posts here. Let me see if I can find the post. I see how it could easily be too salty if you aren't careful, i always use Kosher salt, and i taste along the way.c

Blast it, it's officially winter now. But that doesn't stop those of us on the side of the globe where it's cold. Keep on cookin', folks, and post your cooks here!

As soon as I saw that amount of salt called for, wow, entirely too much. I agree mixing the ground beef with the pork. Looks like we'll give this a try for something different, but only a dash of salt.
I just made this tonight and it was really good. Even my wife, who is incredibly picky, liked it. I over-cooked the meatballs but they still tasted good. I expected to see more browning than I got and kept them under the broiler for about 12 minutes instead of 9 minutes. I didn't think to use a meat thermometer. My only observation was that it took longer than 20 minutes to get all of the liquid to absorb into the rice. Also prep time took a while but that is because it was my first go at this recipe. We will definitely have this meal again and I would recommend it. Sorry but I didn't take a pic.
