Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 32 ounces frozen meatballs
- 1 cup grape jelly
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 2 tablespoons optional fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
Add the frozen meatballs to the crock pot, spreading them out evenly.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together grape jelly, barbecue sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth.
Pour the sauce mixture over the meatballs, making sure they are completely coated.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to cook on high for 3 hours or on low for 5-6 hours.
Stir the meatballs gently halfway through cooking to ensure they are evenly coated in the sauce.
Once cooked, the meatballs should be warmed through and coated in a thick, flavorful sauce.
Serve immediately as an appetizer, or pair with pasta, rice, or bread for a main course.
Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley before serving for added color and flavor.
