Chinese Meatball Sliders Recipe

The NFL playoffs and the Superbowl are approaching fast and that means it is time for more slider recipes. These Chinese meatball sliders make a perfect recipe for any game day party. I saw this recipe in the Food Network Magazine and wanted to give it a try. The meatballs use classic Asian ingredients such as hoisin sauce, ginger, and green onions and are baked in the oven. After the meatballs are finished baking, they are brushed with a hoisin sauce and rice vinegar glaze. The ground pork really helps to add flavor to these meatballs. I like to use dinner rolls for the buns and some mayonnaise and romaine lettuce are added to these sliders for even more great flavor.
