	A few notes on the recipe - I halved the recipe and it worked great. I only had a small can of pineapple so the juice I garnered from it was less than 1/4 cup (even though I needed over 1/2 a cup). I made up the difference with water and it still tasted fabulous.		:A few notes on the recipe - I halved the recipe and it worked great.

=== Ingredients ===
==== Meatballs ====
* 2 lbs ground beef (lean)
* 2 large eggs
* 1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
* 1 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
* 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

==== Sauce ====
* 1 cup brown sugar
* 3 tablespoons cornstarch
* 1 3/4 cups pineapple juice (reserved from pineapple tidbits)
* 1/4 cup white vinegar
* 1 1/2 tablespoon soy sauce
* 1 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
* 1 (14 oz) can pineapple tidbits

=== Preparation ===
Step 1: Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees. Make the meatballs by combining all meatball ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well and shape into about 1” meatballs.

Step 2: Brown Meatballs in a non-stick frying pan and drain on paper towels (or if you want to save time brown in the oven on a cookie sheet while you’re making the sauce).

Step 3: Make the sauce by combining cornstarch and brown sugar in a sauce pan. Then add 1 ¾ cup pineapple juice and blend until the mixture is smooth. Add vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce and stir. Simmer uncovered on medium low until thickened (about 8 minutes - mine only took about 4 minutes to thicken).

Step 4: In a casserole dish pour sauce over meatballs and add pineapple tidbits. Lightly mix meatballs until they are coated with the sauce. Bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes or until fully cooked.
