There are so many combinations for frozen meatball appetizers in the crockpot! There’s the classic BBQ sauce and grape jelly; honey, garlic and ketchup; or classic marinara sauce. But this combination might be my favorite! It’s so easy, just 5 ingredients and a dump and go recipe. You’re going to love it!

What you’ll need
- 3-7 quart crockpot
- crockpot liners (optional)
- 32 ounce bag frozen meatballs, or 40 meatballs. These could be beef, turkey, chicken or veggie.
- Peach Preserves or substitute apricot preserves
- Chili Sauce
- Worcestershire sauce
- 1 yellow or Vidalia onion
Easy peasy! If you aren’t a fan of onions you could leave out the onion, or just leave it in quarters so you can remove it before serving.
Try using sliced, cooked kielbasa instead of meatballs for a different dish! Yum!
How to make it
It’s almost too easy!
Lightly spray a 4 quart or larger size crock pot with nonstick cooking spray or use a crock pot liner for easy clean up.
Thinly slice the onions and spread them evenly across the bottom of the slow cooker. Add the frozen meatballs on top.

In a bowl, whisk together the peach preserves, chili sauce, and Worcestershire sauce until well combined. Pour the sauce over the meatballs, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover and cook on low for 4 hours or high for 2 hours, stirring once halfway through.
Serve as an appetizer with toothpicks or spoon over rice for a delicious meal. Enjoy!

I don’t care for anything spicy, can you suggested an alternative to the 1 cup of chili sauce?
Thank you so much!

Absolutely! BBQ sauce would be delicious instead of chili sauce.
