Preparation Steps
  1. In a slow cooker, whisk together the ketchup, grape jelly, and garlic powder until well combined. Add the frozen meatballs to the slow cooker and stir to coat them evenly with the jelly mixture.
  2. Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 4 hours, or on low for 6-8 hours, stirring occasionally to ensure the meatballs cook evenly.
  3. Once cooked, serve the grape jelly meatballs warm. They are perfect as a party appetizer, often skewered with toothpicks.

Notes

These meatballs are a crowd-pleaser for any gathering, especially during the holidays. You can adjust the cooking time based on your slow cooker and desired tenderness.
