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, mix 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.
  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

  • For a slightly tangier flavor, substitute half of the chili sauce with ketchup.
  • If you want to make this recipe ahead, prepare the sauce and store it in the refrigerator. Add the sauce and meatballs to the slow cooker a few hours before your guests arrive.
