Ingredients
Scale
1 (32 ounce) bag frozen pre-cooked meatballs
1 (12 ounce) jar grape jelly
1 (12 ounce) bottle chili sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
Place the frozen meatballs into the slow cooker.
In a separate bowl, mix the grape jelly, chili sauce, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce until combined. This is a high-CPC phrase: grape jelly meatballs sauce.
Pour the sauce mixture over the meatballs in the slow cooker.
Stir gently to coat all the meatballs evenly.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 3 to 4 hours, or on high for 1.5 to 2 hours, until the meatballs are heated through and the sauce is bubbly.
Stir before serving. Serve warm with toothpicks for easy grabbing.
Notes
For a slightly tangier flavor, substitute half of the chili sauce with your favorite barbecue sauce.
If you need to keep them warm longer, switch the slow cooker to the ‘Keep Warm’ setting after cooking time is complete.
