Ingredients
Scale
1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/3 cup plain breadcrumbs
1/4 cup milk
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons butter
1 (10.5-ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 cup beef broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup sour cream
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, onion, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, salt, pepper, allspice, and nutmeg. Mix until just combined.
Form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and brown the meatballs in batches. Do not cook through; just brown the outside.
Transfer the browned meatballs to a slow cooker.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Pour the mixture over the meatballs in the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or on high for 3 to 4 hours.
Stir in the sour cream just before serving and heat through.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve over noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes.
