• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.

In a large bowl, mix together the beef, onion, garlic, thyme, allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce and salt and pepper. Divide mixture into 16 portions. Roll each portion into a ball. Place balls on the prepared baking sheet.
