Preheat oven to 425°F.

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, mix the ground pork, spices, and apple cider vinegar with your hands until well combined and the spice mixture looks evenly dispersed.

Form the meat into a dozen 1-ounce meatballs, and then place in an oven-safe baking dish or on a baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes.
