Step 3: Make the Buffalo Sauce

  1. While the meatballs are baking, prepare the sauce by whisking together Homer Hot Sauce, melted butter, honey, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder in a bowl.

Step 4: Toss and Serve

  1. Once the meatballs are done, toss them in the buffalo sauce until fully coated.

  2. Serve immediately with celery sticks, carrot sticks, and ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.
