Meat Candy

  5.0 – 3 reviews  • Beef

This recipe was given to me by my father-in-law, and my family adores it. These meaty bites are ideal for any informal occasion, like Super Bowl Sunday, and will be gone before anything else on the buffet!

This is AMAZING! Make sure you line the baking dish with foil or be prepared to soak it. Why are things that taste so good so bad for you?
