Loved these growing up such nostalgia

[@thermalreboot]

I've been making this recipe longer than you've been alive.

I have made this sauce but I make Homemade Meatballs ,I have never found a froxen meatball that I felt was good as mine . But the SAUCE IS GREAT SWEAT AND SOUR

[@kidges3132]

I prefer homemade meatballs too. I tried a frozen for the first time last week and it was awful.

[@stephaniefoley5569]

👍👍👍 commercial frozen meatballs do taste like cardboard….homemade is best and doesn’t take much time nor effort.

[@tomatoplantsgonewild1470]

"Sweat"??

[@catrice7126]

You are a southern gem

[@lilbutterball14]

today is THE day ! I only found you a few days ago and I've thought of nothing else but these delectable looking meatballs since I first viewed this video. I got everything and I'm getting ready to throw and go. Thank you for sharing this recipe with us

[@stephaniefoley5569]

Love😍 this appetizer! Haven’t made in a few years and thank you for sharing to remind me of this old school dish. Homemade meatballs are the best 👍😋Homemade meatballs can be made ahead of time and frozen until ready to use in this dish or saved for any other busy weeknight meals. The sauce mixture can be also used with those little Smokey sausages. If you want a fancy serving dish that would be practical to keep your meatballs warm and look pretty couldn’t a chaffing dish be used? Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 🎅 and all the best in 2022 🎉🍾🥂!!

I liked this recipe out of all the others I watched. They're in the crock pot as I post this. The sauce tasted delicious.

Oh thank god the first 2 seconds i thiught it would be asmr 😂😂😂

[@prairiepalmetto9378]

Whole berry cranberry sauce, French or Catalina dressing (I made my own - easy!) plus 1/2 or whole dry onion soup mix packet (it’s pretty salty). Pour over the meatballs in the slow cooker.

We used to have birthday carryons where I worked. I would make these. Co-workers would just stand in front of my crockpot and forego the plate. I got up to 5#s of ground beef and said no more

[@nicopico5537]

I definitely want to make this soon when I go see my sister

[@LeeLooface]

Yeah these are so good always. Making tomorrow night as a Christmas Eve appetizer. I add a bit of plain tomato sauce to balance out all the sticky sweetness of the rest of the ingredients 🥫😻🥰

[@nadeawilliams7749]

I make these but the sauce is simply equal parts grape jelly and chili sauce!

[@LadyD7]

They look good like that you added the mustard.

[@tanyarobinson1623]

Looks yummy. Thank you. 👏 👏

[@lisab.3091]

I am asked every year to bring this to the Christmas party in our building (pre COVID😔). They disappear in no time.

[@scotto9591]

Who was the person who said, I'm going to make meatballs with grape jelly 🤯🤯🤯

[@FenrirFire18]

Idk, but the grape flavor and jelly break down well in the bbq. It comes out as a sweet bbq.

[@tonyawykle4966]

Uhm. Did I miss when you added the jelly?

She adds it at the 1:54 mark

[@heatherfeather4]

Could I use blackberry jam? I do t have grape jelly!

[@christierella]

I use strawberry, whatever you like would work.

[@catrice7126]
