BBQ PORK BALLS
Method

- Using wet hands, divide the mixture into 16 -24 balls depending on your desired size
- Flatten each ball a little with your hands

Comments
This recipe has come from simply talking to the producers and combining their harmonious ingredients. These balls have been twice cooked which adds a wonderful texture and they are delicious eaten as is or teamed up with your favourite sauce.
