What can I say except yum. These All-Star Pork Meatballs are easy to prepare, simple to cook and are basted in a sauce that will blow your mind. I always use fresh ground pork as it is easier to mould into ball shapes than frozen. This is also a good recipe to get children interested in cooking. They love crushing the cornflakes and making the meatballs. These make a superb main dish for any time of the year. Also, I usually serve these on a bed of hot rice and pour the leftover sauce over the plates. Nothing goes to waste.

They were moist, flavorful, and had the perfect amount of seasoning. I’ll definitely be adding this recipe to what on offer.
These All Star Pork Meatballs are a total hit! The combination of the ground pork and crushed corn flakes creates a nice texture—crispy on the outside, but juicy on the inside.
These meatballs are so moist and fiull of flavour. Loved them
The All Star Pork Meatballs are super easy to make, and the flavors are really well balanced. The corn flakes are a unique twist that gives the meatballs a light crunch.
I just added a little red chilli for a heat and they were perfect.
I appreciate that the recipe uses simple, pantry ingredients. Makes life so much easier. These meatballs were a crowd-pleaser.
I felt that the dried onion flakes gave a nice hint of flavor, but I’d probably add a bit more salt to bring everything out. Overall, a tasty dish that I’d make again.
I tried the All Star Pork Meatballs and they were fantastic! The corn flakes give the meatballs a great crunch, and the mix of ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard creates a delicious sweet glaze that complements the savory pork.
My only suggestion would be to add a little more seasoning for extra flavor, maybe a touch of garlic. Otherwise, it’s a solid recipe that’s great for both dinner and as an appetizer
These meatballs are a new favorite in our household
The ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard glaze is the perfect balance of sweet and tangy.
These are so simple that I could not mess it up. Delicious meal, good ideas.
