With a fork or clean hands, gently combine the meat, egg, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper. Shape into 1-inch balls. Press a green olive slice into the ball to make "eyes". Melt the butter in a large saute pan and brown the meatballs on all sides. Drain off the fat. In a bowl, stir together the jelly and chili sauce and pour over the meatballs. Simmer uncovered for 30 minutes over medium to low heat, turning the meatballs regularly.

the pic is supposed to be scary and gross...its for Halloween and they are monster eyeballs! and what that has to do with how good the recipe is...I dont know. These are FANTASTIC! I made them a few years ago for a Halloween party and my guests ate them up so fast I didnt even get to try them..to this day they request them at my get togethers and MANY have asked for the recipe......I had to make another batch the next day because I couldnt stop thinking about them...lol. I have made them several times throught out the rest of the year because they are just a great go to dish. you can omit the olive for the rest of theyear..lol. Push the olive into the meat ball further or put a bigger piece of olive to help it stay in place. They are SO good, juicy and FUN when the directions are followed.
