The Best Sweet and Sour Pork Meatballs

The Best Sweet and Sour Pork Meatballs

Water chestnuts and green onions give an Asian twist to our family's sweet and sour meatballs. This recipe has been a closely guarded family secret for over 20 years, we make them every Christmas and they're always a hit. I've decided they're too good not to share.
