Description

No Super Bowl spread is complete without these Sweet and Spicy Meatballs. Juicy, tender, and coated in a bold, sticky glaze, they strike the perfect balance between savory, sweet, and just the right kick of heat. Whether served on toothpicks or straight from the crockpot, these bites vanish faster than the halftime show.


Ingredients

Scale

2 pounds frozen cocktail meatballs (or homemade)

1 cup chili sauce

¾ cup grape jelly

2 tablespoons sriracha or hot sauce (adjust to taste)

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Chopped green onions or sesame seeds for garnish (optional)


Instructions

In a slow cooker, combine chili sauce, grape jelly, sriracha, soy sauce, and garlic powder. Stir to mix.

Add meatballs and toss to coat in the sauce.

Cook on LOW for 4–5 hours or HIGH for 2–3 hours, stirring occasionally.

Once hot and glazed, switch to warm setting to serve straight from the crockpot.

Garnish with green onions or sesame seeds if desired.
