DIRECTIONS
1. | Keep the meatballs frozen until you are ready to heat. Empty 1 package of meatballs in each steam table pan. Make sure they are in a single layer. Heat the meatballs according to the case or package directions. Cover the pans and place them in the warmer until ready for service or assembly. CCP: Heat to 135 degrees F or higher for 15 seconds at the completion of the cooking process. If manufacturer instructions on package or case have a higher temperature, follow those recommendations. |
2. | Whisk the BBQ sauce, brown sugar, and Creole Spice Blend together then heat the mixture. Pour the BBQ sauce mixture over the meatballs. Stir them gently to cover the meatballs with the sauce. Use immediately, or cover the meatballs and place them in a warmer until ready for the sandwich assembly. CCP: Hold in warmer at 135 degrees F or warmer until ready for assembly. |
3. | SANDWICH ASSEMBLY:
Serve immediately, or cover the pan with a lid, foil, or plastic wrap. If foil or plastic wrap is used, cut holes in it to allow steam to escape. Place the pan in a warmer until ready for service. CCP: Cover and hold for service at 135 degrees F or higher. |
4. | Portion 5 meatballs and sauce with a 6 ounce spoodle on each split hoagie bun per serving. Each portion provides 2 oz. eq. of meat/meat alternate and 2 oz. eq. whole grain. CCP: Hold and maintain the product at a minimum temperature of 135 degrees F or higher. Check temperature every 30 minutes. Unassembled leftovers should be covered, labeled, and dated.
