Perfect for parties, holidays, game nights, or even for a simple dinner over fluffy white rice. These meatballs are so easy to make! They are ready to go into your crockpot in less than 5 minutes!

You can also make these yummy meatballs on the stove or in your oven:
Stovetop Meatballs – Add the meatballs, barbecue sauce and grape jelly to a Dutch oven or large pot and combine. Simmer over medium/low heat for 25-30 minutes or until the meatballs are warmed through, stirring occasionally to keep the sauce from burning.
Oven-Baked Meatballs – Add all the ingredients into a casserole dish or Dutch oven and mix to combine. Cover with lid or foil and bake at 325°F for 20-25 minutes or until the meatballs have cooked through. Note: Adjust the cooking time based on the size of your meatballs.
