Ingredients
Scale
2 pounds frozen pre-cooked meatballs
1 (12 ounce) jar grape jelly
1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
Place the frozen meatballs into the basin of your slow cooker.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the grape jelly, cream of mushroom soup, Worcestershire sauce, and onion powder until smooth.
Pour the sauce mixture evenly over the meatballs in the slow cooker.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 4 to 6 hours, or on high for 2 to 3 hours, stirring gently halfway through the cooking time.
Serve the grape jelly meatballs directly from the slow cooker using toothpicks or small serving forks.
Notes
For a slightly spicier flavor, add 1/4 cup of chili sauce along with the other sauce ingredients.
If you want to make these ahead, prepare the sauce and store it separately. Add the sauce and meatballs to the slow cooker a few hours before serving.
