Prep Time

This crock pot meatball recipe takes about 15 minutes of prep time. This includes gathering the ingredients, measuring them out, and prepping the slow cooker. It’s important to read the recipe through and understand the directions before you begin.

Cook Time

This crock pot meatball recipe takes about 4 to 5 hours to cook in the slow cooker. It’s best to check the meatballs after 4 hours to see if they are done. To do this, insert a thermometer into the center of a meatball. The temperature should read 165ºF. If the temperature is lower than that, the meatballs need to cook a bit longer.

Ingredients

  • 1 package frozen, pre-cooked meatballs (1 1/2 to 2 pounds)
  • 1/2 cup chili sauce
  • 1 cup grape jelly
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Place the frozen meatballs in the slow cooker.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the chili sauce, grape jelly, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix well.
  3. Pour the sauce over the meatballs and stir gently to coat.
  4. Cook on low for 4 to 5 hours, or until the internal temperature of the meatballs reaches 165ºF.
  5. Serve with mashed potatoes or your favorite side dish and a salad.

Equipment

You will need a slow cooker, a small bowl, measuring cups, a spoon for stirring, and a thermometer for testing the internal temperature of the meatballs.

Notes

This recipe can be easily doubled or tripled if you’re feeding a larger crowd. You may need to adjust the cooking time if you increase the amount of meatballs.

Recipe Tips

  • If you don’t have a thermometer, you can test the meatballs by cutting into one. The meat should be cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
  • If you like a thicker sauce, you can mix 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir it into the sauce before cooking. This will help thicken the sauce.
  • For a spicier version, add a teaspoon of chili powder to the sauce mixture.
  • You can also add a teaspoon of Dijon mustard to the sauce for added flavor.
  • If you don’t have pre-cooked meatballs, you can use raw meatballs. Just increase the cooking time to 6 to 8 hours.
  • You can also use homemade meatballs, just make sure they are cooked through before serving.
  • To add some veggies to the dish, you can add a cup of chopped bell peppers or mushrooms to the slow cooker before cooking.
