Easy cranberry meatballs perfect for holiday parties or game day, made with a simple tangy-sweet glaze.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (32 ounce) bag frozen cooked meatballs
  • 1 (16 ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce
  • 1 cup barbecue sauce
  • 1/4 cup chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  1. Combine cranberry sauce, barbecue sauce, chili sauce, and Worcestershire sauce in a slow cooker. Stir well.
  2. Add the frozen meatballs to the slow cooker. Stir to coat the meatballs evenly with the sauce.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 2-3 hours, or on high for 1-1.5 hours, until the meatballs are heated through and the sauce is bubbly.
  4. Stir occasionally during cooking.
  5. Serve hot directly from the slow cooker.

Notes

  • For a make-ahead option, prepare the sauce and meatballs and store them separately in the refrigerator. Combine and heat in the slow cooker a few hours before serving.
  • Keep the slow cooker on the ‘warm’ setting to hold the meatballs until ready to serve.
  • These meatballs can also be made on the stovetop in a large pot over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, for about 20-30 minutes.
