"This is easy and always a big hit at my get togethers, it's great with mini meatballs or Lil Smokies, to make it ever more easier purchase ready made frozen cooked small meatballs or you can make your own and cook them first, I use my own Kittencal's Italian Melt-In-Your-Mouth Meatballs recipe, this is great to take to a potluck. Yields about 40-50 meatballs"
In a pot combine the grape jelly with the chili sauce; add in the cooked meatballs and simmer for about 45 minutes uncovered or until the sauce has thickened.
If you making your own meatball recipe, shape into about 1-inch balls. Place on a baking sheet.
Bake in a 350 degree F oven for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through.
Place in the prepared sauce.
I used this sauce with Hillshire Farms Lit'l Smokey Sausages. Delicious little dogs and a great choice for my buffet table for the holidays!
I made these for our office Christmas party yesterday. Loved the bit of heat with the sweet. Everyone else did too because I went home with an empty crock pot!
