Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (14-ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce
  • 1 (12-ounce) bottle chili sauce
  • 1/2 cup grape jelly
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 pounds frozen cooked meatballs (beef, turkey, or vegetarian)

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the cranberry sauce, chili sauce, grape jelly, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and ground ginger until well combined.
  • Pour the cranberry sauce mixture into the bottom of your slow cooker. Make sure the bottom is evenly coated.
  • Add the frozen meatballs to the slow cooker, gently stirring to coat them evenly with the cranberry sauce mixture.
  • Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 3-4 hours, or on high for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally. The meatballs are ready when they are heated through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  • Once cooked, give the meatballs a final stir. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. If the sauce is too thick, add a tablespoon or two of water to thin it out. If it’s too thin, cook uncovered for another 30 minutes to allow it to reduce.
