There is no recipe I am asked to make more than these cranberry BBQ meatballs! These meatballs require just four ingredients, are easy to make in a slow cooker, and a major crowd pleaser -- making them perfect for holiday parties. Even my mother-in-law, who is the pickiest eater I’ve ever known, loves these cranberry BBQ meatballs!
Slow-Cooker Cranberry BBQ Meatballs
Ingredients:
- 1 pound of meatballs (I prefer turkey meatballs or Italian meatballs)
- 1 16 oz can of jellied cranberry sauce
- 1/3 cup barbecue sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
Directions:
- Open cranberry sauce and cut into slices.
- Place the cranberry sauce in a layer on the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Add the BBQ sauce and soy sauce, stir.
- Place meatballs over the sauce.
- Cook on low 4-6 hours or high 2-4 hours. Cooking time is for frozen meatballs, so fresh or refrigerated meatballs will need less time.
- Twenty minutes before serving, stir meatballs and sauce together, making sure each meatball is coated with the sauce.
