Taco Meatball Ring - Grilled Appetizer - Grill Dome
One of my all-time favorite Grilled appetizers! I have cooked the Taco Meatball Ring on a grill, in a Dutch oven and in my Kitchen, this time we are grilling them on the Grill Dome. With this very simple recipe, you can have these baked and served in under one hour. Nothing beats a grilled appetizer!
