Moink balls are bacon wrapped meat balls. If you search the forums for moink balls, you will find a plethora of references. Good, simple, rapidly quick appetizer.
So, the first time I did moink balls, I made them from scratch.. They were good, but it was a lot more work than I want to spend tomorrow morning getting ready for March madness because they need to be ready by 11:30 central time.
Tomorrow's will be with store bought, pre cooked beef...
In hindsight, it probably could have come off a bit earlier. But the taste was absolutely famous and I steamed it whenever I reheated it, so all was good.
OK... Here it is! And it turned out great. I have never before had smoked Corned beef so I had a traditional basis for the comparison. With the sugar Maple rub and the sugary Brine, it made the kitchen smell a lot like a spiral sliced glazed ham at easter, but the taste was a great...

Am starting with a 6 lb Sy Ginsberg Corned beef from Costco... I Brined it for a short time in a very sugar Brine to try and take a bit of saltiness out of it and added a Bit of apple vinegar to try and add to the tenderness factor.
Anyway, I Rubbed it with a sweet sugar Maple rub and am...
The final Q-View... Really happy with the level of cooking. Just enough bite needed to take it off the bone, but they come off real clean. Wish I had let them sit with the rub for more than 3 hours, as I usually let them sit overnight when I used to do them on the grill.
Thanks to...
