We add pork to our venison meatballs - just to give a little fat to the mix. For one pound - I would add 1/4 pound of ground pork. Venison is a staple in our home. Better than beef for us.
I did not have wine or apple juice so used concord grape juice. This is a great recipe. It
Too much butter for cooking, use what seems normal based on current tastes. Used 1/2 t. salt and 1 t. would have been better. I don’t much like paprika so used 1 t. and it was fine. Could use more cumin and coriander. Found the sauce too runny - cut the broth and wine amounts in half for a thicker sauce. Would be good with noodles or rice to absorb the sauce.
Made as recipe stated but used apple-cranberry juice instead of wine and didn’t have enough paprika but tasted pretty good. Tender meatballs served over rice with a tossed salad. Nice Sunday dinner.
