nutmeg
allspice
and cayenne. Mix in ground beef and pork until well combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Make gravy: Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; whisk in flour and cook until golden brown
4 to 5 minutes. Slowly whisk in beef broth. Increase heat to medium-high
whisk in cream
and bring to a simmer. Stir in sugar and Worcestershire. Simmer until slightly thickened
6 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly coat with cooking spray.
Roll 2 to 3 tablespoons meatball mixture into a ball using wet hands; repeat with remaining meatball mixture. Place meatballs on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until browned and cooked through
