Ingredients

Servings
  • 32 ounces frozen cocktail meatballs
  • 14 ounces whole berry cranberry sauce
  • 2 cups Honey BBQ sauce
  • green onions thinly sliced, for garnish
  • fresh cranberries for garnish

Instructions

  1. Bake meatballs according to package directions.
  2. While meatballs cook, add cranberry sauce and bbq sauce to a large saucepan over medium heat. Whisk to combine. Cook until bubbling and heated through.
  3. Remove meatballs from oven and add to pot with sauce. Stir to coat meatballs. Let cook for 5 minutes.
  4. Transfer to a crock pot on WARM until ready to serve, or spoon meatballs onto a serving plate and spoon sauce over top. Garnish with green onions and cranberries, if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Nutrition is based on a 64 count bag of 1/2-ounce frozen meatballs and assumes all the sauce will be consumed.
  • Make this recipe in a crockpot:
  • For this recipe, a crockpot is used to keep them warm for your party, but you could cook them in there too if you have the time. Mix the sauce ingredients in the crock pot, then pour in the bag of meatballs. Stir to coat the meatballs in the sauce, and cook on LOW for about 4 hours. Be sure to stir every hour so the meatballs stay covered in the sauce and don't burn on the bottom.
