Easy Crock Pot Meatball Recipe is made up of frozen meatballs, barbecue and grape jelly. The dish makes a great dinner or an appetizer for church or a party, and is easy to make.
It’s hard to believe Easter is right around the corner, and summer not far behind.
We had a backyard fire tonight. I always love sitting out back around a crackling fire. We decided to make hot dogs, and S’mores. We’re down here in Florida and we’re already having record heat. But, tonight was cooler and we enjoyed sitting outside as a family.
We’ve been running around like crazy lately and it’s nice to have a calm night.
On those crazy nights I love to get out my Crock Pot. It’s a mom’s best friend.
The Crock Pot meatballs are a cinch to make. It takes about five minutes to throw together, a few hours to cook, and then you’ve got dinner.
Recipe and printable instructions listed below.
Spray the Crock Pot with a non-stick spray. Add the grape jelly and barbecue sauce to the Crock Pot.
Mix it all together.
Add the meatballs and make sure they are mixed in well and somewhat covered with sauce.
Set the Crock Pot on high for about 3 to 3-1/2 hours. Give it a stir about halfway through.

These meatballs look so good and easy. It’s so nice you can sit outside at night now. My in laws live in Florida and we like visiting them in the winter to get a break from the north east winter.

Hi Joanne, Thank you! This seems to be the perfect time down here right now. It will start to get unbearably hot in a couple of months. That’s great you can come down and visit your in-laws and thaw out a little bit. I am sure it gets super cold up there in the north east!
