In a large mixing bowl, add in the meat, all purpose seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, egg, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, diced shallot and parsley.
With your hands, mix all the ingredients together. Make sure to blend in all the loose ingredients massaging them into the meat.
Scoop up the mixture, make a flat patty and place a 1/4 of string cheese piece in the middle. Wrap the meat around and roll it into a golf ball sized meatball and place them on a greased up wire rack.
Heat up the grill to 250 degrees, set it up for indirect heat and place the wire rack with the meatballs on the grill.
Smoke the meatballs on the grill until they reach 145 degrees internal temp.
Remove them from the grill and let them completely cool down.
Remove the biscuit dough from the packaging, slice in half and flatten each one out. You can use a rolling pin or your hands.
Place a meatball on the dough and close it shut but pinching the ends together.
Grease a sheet pan and place the biscuit wrapped meatballs on the pan and back on the grill at 350 degrees.
Bake for 10-15 minutes until the crust turns golden brown.
Just before removing the smoked meatball biscuits from the grill, melt a stick of butter, add a tablespoon of minced garlic, leftover chopped parsley and a pinch of salt. Mix together and brush the biscuits.
Continue cooking for a few more minutes. When the biscuits are done, remove them from the grill and let them cool down for a minute. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping and enjoy!

Don't overwork the meat when mixing with the other ingredients or the meatballs will be tough and dense. Mix just long enough to incorporate all the ingredients together.
Substitute a shallow with yellow onion.
Feel free to use flavored breadcrumbs to give them meatballs a punch of flavor.
Use store bought biscuit dough for convenience and mess free recipe.
