Make impressive, sweet and savory grape jelly meatballs in your slow cooker. This simple appetizer is perfect for holiday gatherings and feeds a crowd.

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

Instructions

  1. Place the frozen meatballs into the slow cooker.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the grape jelly, chili sauce, and Worcestershire sauce until combined.
  3. Pour the sauce mixture over the meatballs in the slow cooker.
  4. Stir gently to coat all the meatballs evenly.
  5. 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.
  6. Stir before serving. Keep warm on the ‘Keep Warm’ setting for your party.

Notes

  • You can substitute chili sauce with equal parts ketchup and brown sugar if you prefer a less spicy flavor.
  • For best results when serving a large group, use the ‘Keep Warm’ setting after the meatballs are fully cooked.
