BBQ Meatballs

1 can evaporated milk (13 oz)
3 lbs hamburger
2 c oatmeal (quick cooking)
2 eggs
1 med onion, chopped
½ t garlic powder
2 t salt
2 t pepper
2 t chili powder
½ t cinnamon

Mix all together in a large bowl (it’s easiest with your hands). Make into balls using a small ice cream scoop. Bake at 350° for 30 min. Drain off grease. Add the following sauce:

4 c ketchup
3 c brown sugar (packed)
4 T liquid smoke
1 t garlic powder
1 C onion, chopped
½ t cinnamon

Bake for another 30 min or until done. This is enough for 2 meals plus leftovers. Take half of the meat and half of the sauce and freeze them separately in gallon size ziplocks before cooking. Just thaw, shape, and bake. It makes a quick second meal.
