Description

A delightful combination of sweet grape jelly and savory meatballs, perfect for gatherings or as a snack.


Ingredients

  • 32 oz frozen fully cooked meatballs
  • 1 cup grape jelly (recommended: Smuckers brand)
  • 1 ½ cups barbecue sauce (recommended: Sweet Baby Ray’s brand)
  • 2 tablespoons chili garlic sauce


Instructions

  1. Add the frozen meatballs, grape jelly, barbecue sauce, and chili sauce into the base of the slow cooker.
  2. Mix until well combined.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours (larger meatballs may take 4-5 hours).
  4. Stir halfway through the cooking process for even coating and heating.
  5. Once cooked, keep the slow cooker covered on the warm setting until ready to serve.
  6. Garnish with parsley or chives if desired.

Notes

For added texture, use a combination of meatballs—beef, turkey, or chicken. Adjust the heat by adding more chili garlic sauce or trying different barbecue sauces.
