What goes perfectly with a cold beer at a backyard BBQ? A cold beer mixed into deliciously-seasoned, perfectly grilled meatballs. Whip this recipe mixture up in advance to cut down on party prep time, then toss the meatballs on the grill when guests arrive. They’re delicious however you serve them, but we love ours on a toasted roll with a charred jalapeno topper, for a little added kick.
