Slow Cooker Frozen Meatballs with Grape Jelly + BBQ Sauce
3-ingredient cocktail meatballs that could NOT be easier to make! These are perfect as a game day snack, for parties, or as a fun dinner.
Servings: 10
Ingredients
- 1 cup grape jelly
- 1 cup BBQ sauce
- 1 (26-ounce) bag frozen beef meatballs
Directions
- Whisk together the jelly and BBQ sauce in the basin of a slow cooker. Add the frozen meatballs and stir to coat. Cook on HIGH for 2-3 hours or LOW for 3-4 hours.Serve immediately, or turn slow cooker to "warm" until ready to serve.
Notes
The Sauce - There are so many variations on this recipe! The most popular one uses Heinz chili sauce instead of the BBQ sauce - both variations are good!
The grape jelly can also be swapped out for other fruit preserves such as apricot, raspberry, strawberry, orange marmalade, or cranberry sauce.
Meatballs - Some stores carry frozen meatballs in slightly bigger or smaller bags that the 26-ounce one called for in this recipe. Using a slightly different size is perfectly fine here! If it's more than a few ounces bigger, I would increase the sauce amounts slightly.
