I like this idea! How did it turn out? Open grill, or one of those copper mats?

Just the top rack, nothing fancy. They held together quite well. The coals were towards the end of their life. I made some wieners for lunch before I formed up the meatballs because I didn't want to really "cook" the meatballs. They just picked up a ton of flavor from the charcoal. They finished cooking in the soup and really added a ton of char flavor. My wife and I really liked it, but agreed it turned away from the brothy albondigas flavor... it's still there, but it's different.
I was worried about the raw rice in the meatballs hardening up on the grill and not cooking right in the soup, but that wasn't an issue.
