Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
- 2/3 cup plain breadcrumbs
- 1/3 cup minced onion
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 (15 ounce) can pineapple chunks, juice reserved
- 1/3 cup vinegar

Directions:
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Thoroughly mix the ground beef, bread crumbs, onion, milk, egg, and salt together in a bowl. Roll the mixture into balls and arrange onto a baking sheet.
