Ground Turkey Meatballs

 

I made carnivore ground turkey meatballs today. They were delicious! As we all know, ground turkey has little fat so I added lard and cooked them in butter. I used a pound of ground turkey and added two eggs, about 1 tablespoon of lard, salt and pepper and a pinch of my own dried spice mix. Mixed well and made balls by hand. 

 

By this time the butter in the cast iron skillet, was hot. I added the meatballs, browned them well, turned down the heat and put the lid on. They were done shortly. It didn't take long. I cooked them until they were over 165f. 

I removed the meatballs from the pan and added more butter. When melted and bubbly, I added a glug of heavy cream and a few tablespoons of high fat cream cheese, salt and pepper. This made a delicious white cheese sauce for the meatballs. I ate about 5 of them smothered in the cheese sauce. Delicious!
