Ingredients
- 26-32 ounces frozen meatballs or make our homemade meatballs
- 18 ounces BBQ sauce pick your favorite, we like a spicy sauce!
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar packed
- ¼ cup butter
Instructions
- Set out a large 6-8 quart slow cooker. Pour the meatballs into the slow cooker, followed by the barbecue sauce, brown sugar and butter.
- Cover the slow cooker and turn on LOW for 3 to 5 hours, or on HIGH for 2 to 3 hours. Make sure to stir at least once, to smooth out the sauce, and make sure all the meatballs get a good coating of sauce.
- Keep warm until ready to serve. Garnish if desired.
Notes
- Leftover BBQ meatballs cooked in the crock pot will keep well for up to 3 days in an airtight container in the fridge.
- To Freeze: Let the cooked meatballs cool completely before transferring to a freezer-safe airtight container. I suggest wrapping the container in a layer of aluminum foil as well. Freeze for up to 3 months. You can then throw them back in the slow cooker with more BBQ sauce, or reheat them on the stovetop or in the microwave.
- But note that the texture will likely be a bit softer after re-freezing, thawing, and reheating.
