Smoked Ricotta Meatball Sliders on the Weber Searwood with our ambassador Dining With Skyler. The cherry wood pellets used to heat the grill add SO much flavor to whatever youโ€™re making. โœจ๐ŸคŒ

Recipe serves 16 small square sliders or 8 long sliders

For the Meatballs:

* 2 lbs ground beef (80/20)
* 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
* 1/3 cup dried Italian seasoning (no salt addedโ€” you can also just add dried oregano)
* 2 eggs
* 1 1/2 kosher salt
* 1 cup breadcrumbs

For the Sliders:
* 1 ciabatta loaf, sliced lengthwise
* Olive oil for drizzling
* Arabbiata sauce
* Grated Parmesan cheese for topping
* Fresh oregano leaves
* Extra virgin olive oil for drizzling
* Black pepper for topping

Preheat your Weber searwood grill to 200ยฐF with cherry pellets. Smoke the ricotta in a cast iron skillet on the grill for 20 minutes. Remove and
set aside.

While smoking, mix ground beef, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, eggs, salt, pepper, and breadcrumbs. Form into 2-3 inch meatballs.

Increase the grill to 450ยฐF. Drizzle ciabatta slices with olive oil and toast on the grill until golden, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
Grill the meatballs until cooked through and charred, about 10-12 minutes.

Spread arrabbiata sauce on the toasted ciabatta. Add smoked ricotta and meatballs. Top with Parmesan, fresh oregano, and a drizzle of olive oil.

Cut into square sliders and serve immediately. Enjoy!
