Description
Honey BBQ Crockpot Meatballs are tender meatballs slow‑cooked in a sweet and tangy honey‑BBQ glaze—effortless comfort food perfect for parties, family dinners, or snacks.
Ingredients
- 1 bag (about 2 lb) frozen meatballs
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, barbecue sauce, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth.
- Place frozen meatballs in the crockpot in an even layer.
- Pour the sauce over the meatballs and gently stir to coat.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 4 hours or HIGH for 2 hours, until meatballs are hot and sauce has thickened.
- Stir gently before serving to ensure even coating.
- Serve hot directly from the crockpot or transfer to a platter with extra sauce on the side.
Notes
- Garnish with sliced green onions, chopped parsley, or sesame seeds for a pop of color and texture.
- Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or coleslaw; or use toothpicks for game‑day appetizers.
- Skewer meatballs on cocktail sticks for easy grab‑and‑go party bites.
- Store leftovers (including sauce) in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Freeze in freezer‑safe containers for 2–3 months. Thaw before reheating.
- Reheat gently on the stovetop or microwave with a splash of water or extra BBQ sauce to revive the glaze.
