RECIPE Preparation
- In a small bowl, combine breadcrumbs and milk. Let mixture sit for about 10 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- To a mixing bowl, add breadcrumb mixture, bison, parmesan cheese, oregano, paprika, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, and the egg. Mix until evenly combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Divide meatball mixture into 1-ounce portions (a 1-ounce cookie scoop makes quick work of this). Press 1 cheese cube into each portion, wrap the meat around it and roll into a ball. Make sure each piece of cheese is completely encased in the meatball.
- Place meatballs on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Let meatballs rest for a few minutes then top with BBQ sauce and serve.
