Ingredients

How to make it

  • Combine meatball ingredients well.
  • Roll to large tablespoon sized balls and place on cooling rack resting over a cookie sheet. (I cover the sheet with foil and spray the cooling rack :) See Photo
  • Bake at 400 for about 12 minutes. Don't over brown, just cook them enough to be cooked just through and most of the fat has been rendered. See Photo
  • Add all sauce ingredients to slow cooker and drop in meatballs.(make sure they are mostly drained)
  • Stir and let simmer on low for a couple of hours, just to warm through and mix flavors.
  • You can also take the lid off to let the sauce thicken, if desired.

    /You left another great recipe for us here Keni. These are /delicious, I served them as a meal over cauliflower rice. I could totally see making them a little smaller than what I did and guests popping them in their mouth straight out of the slow cooker though :) A few changes I made in the IMI ---------> Imbibing Meatballs

    If you have heard about the spaghetti tacos, I used your meatballs with thin sliced sweet onions for an adult meatball taco at a tailgate party. 40 tacos gone in 15 minutes. Thanks for sharing a great recipe!!

    Fantastic recipe. Made this for a get-together. It was really simple to make. Actually doubled it and just tossed everything in the slow cooker, turned it on low and forgot all about it. The sauce was so flavorful. The meatballs were gone rather quickly. My brother said afterward that it would be great if I could make him the recipe, and then said "Actually, if you could just make the sauce, that would be great." I used tequila as that's what I had. Oh, and I've made the jelly recipe and Keni's Imbibing Meatballs put that one to shame.

    I'll leave out the spirits, but otherwise this sounds great. Grape jelly and chili sauce? I didn't see that one. I did the same thing with steak---> http://malsfoodporn.blogspot.com/2010/07/cindys-slammin-sweet-sour-sauce.html Well, sorta. It was more like frank's red hot, raspberry jam and 5 spice powder, but you get the gist. I like this recipe and might wrap turkey bacon around them, just to be different.
