Pairing Ideas
This Devil's Fireball Recipe pairs perfectly with garlic bread or a side of pasta. If you're looking for something lighter, a crisp, green salad will balance the heat wonderfully. A glass of chilled white wine or a cold beer can also complement the spiciness.
Storing and Reheating
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the meatballs in a microwave-safe dish and cover them with a damp paper towel. Microwave on high for about 2 minutes, or until heated through. You can also reheat them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes.
