Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Tennessee Whiskey I used Jack Daniels
  • ½ cup Strawberry Jam - the best kind you can find- I used homemade
  • ¼ Cup brown sugar
  • ¼ Cup Tabasco sauce I used Cholulas
  • ½ Cup Thick Red sweet barbecue sauce I used “Bone Sucking” sauce - but any will be fine
  • ¼ Cup molasses I like the organic type
  • ¼ Cup water
  • 2 Tbs garlic powder
  • 2 Tbs onion powder
  • 2 Tbs chipotle chili powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 package of 28 Frozen Italian Meatballs
  • Green onions for garnish

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a small sauce pan, heat the Tennessee Whiskey over medium heat until reduced by ½ (no need to measure exactly - just eyeball it). Just fyi - this makes a smell in your house - but don’t skip this step - makes for flavor.
  2. In a medium sized mixing bowl,whisk together all the ingredients except the meatballs.
  3. Place meatballs into crock pot and pour the whisked sauce over the top. Mix again with a spoon to make sure all the meatballs are coated.
  4. Heat crockpot on High for 4 hours or Low for 8. Serve on slider buns (we like to use the King's Hawaiian Rolls as buns). Garnish with chopped green onions.

Notes

  • Use the meatballs found on loaves and dishes for better taste
