Ingredients
Scale
2 pounds frozen cooked meatballs
18 ounce bottle chili sauce
10 ounce jar grape jelly
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
Combine chili sauce, grape jelly, and Worcestershire sauce in a slow cooker.
Stir until the jelly is melted and the sauce is well combined.
Add the frozen meatballs to the slow cooker.
Stir to coat the meatballs evenly with the sauce.
Cover and cook on low for 2-3 hours, or on high for 1-1.5 hours, until the meatballs are heated through and the sauce is bubbly.
Stir occasionally.
Serve hot directly from the slow cooker.
Notes
These meatballs are best served immediately after cooking.
You can prepare the sauce ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator. Add the meatballs and cook when ready to serve.
For a slightly spicier kick, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
