No, not the movie!

Looking for a good basic meatball recipe.  I intend to cook them on the 
smoker and want the heat to be in the sauce and not in the meatballs.  These 
are intended for use in build-it-yoself burritos.  I already have several 
cheesy sauce ideas, but could use some help there too.  Am a big fan of 
Ricco's aged cheddar cheese sauce that get in institutional size cans and 
Pace Chunky Salsa. (Not so bad as you might think even before doctoring up)

Already spent several hours the last few days looking through my two fav 
sources for recipe ideas:

No Calvin's powder in my pantry!  Boo hoo....

No need to be calorie or cholesterol conscious here.  I use lots of lard and 
like my burgers greasy with a lot of cheese.  Am thinking ground beef and 
ground pork for the base.  No ground fowl.  Never had lamb in my life so 
don't have a clue if worthwhile addition or not.  Even saw kangaroo meat in 
a meatloaf or meatball recipe someplace.  Not sure if local Sam's Club 
carries that or not...

Any help would be appreciated.
