Smoked Cheese Stuffed Beef Meatballs

Ingredients:

- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon Rave BBQ Rubs Da Burger Bomb
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 4-6 cubes of cheese (such as cheddar or mozzarella), cut into small cubes
- Barbecue sauce for serving (optional)

Instructions:

Preparing the Traeger Grill:
1. Preheat your Traeger grill to 225°F (107°C) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Use wood pellets of your choice for a smoky flavor.

Making the Meatball Mixture:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, Rave BBQ Rubs Da Burger Bomb, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

Assembling and Smoking the Meatballs:

1. Take a small portion of the meat mixture and flatten it in your hand. Place a cube of cheese in the center, then wrap the meat around the cheese, forming a meatball. Repeat with the remaining meat mixture and cheese cubes.
2. Place the cheese-stuffed meatballs directly on the grill grate of the preheated Traeger grill.
3. Close the lid and smoke the meatballs at 225°F (107°C) for about 2 to 2.5 hours, or until the internal temperature of the meatballs reaches 160°F (71°C).

Serving:

1. Remove the smoked meatballs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
2. Serve the cheese-stuffed beef meatballs hot, optionally with barbecue sauce for dipping.
3. Enjoy the delicious smoky flavor and juicy meatballs!

These smoked low and slow cheese-stuffed beef meatballs are sure to be a hit at your next barbecue or gathering. The slow smoking process infuses them with a rich smoky flavor, while the melted cheese inside adds a delightful surprise. Enjoy grilling on your Traeger!
