Description

These slow cooker honey garlic meatballs are sweet, savory, and irresistibly sticky. Made with just a handful of pantry staples, this effortless recipe is perfect for parties, game days, or an easy weeknight dinner. Just toss everything in the slow cooker and let the magic happen.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 32 oz bag fully cooked frozen meatballs (e.g., Great Value Homestyle)

  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar

  • 1 cup honey

  • 2 cups ketchup

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 3 teaspoons garlic, minced


Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together brown sugar, honey, ketchup, soy sauce, and minced garlic until smooth.

  • Place frozen meatballs into a slow cooker. Pour the sauce over the top and stir to coat evenly.

  • Cover and cook on low for 4–5 hours or on high for 2–3 hours, until meatballs are heated through and sauce is thick and bubbly.

  • Stir occasionally, if possible, to ensure even coating.

  • Serve warm as an appetizer or over rice for a main dish.

Notes

  • Great for parties—keep warm on the “keep warm” setting.

  • Use homemade or turkey meatballs if desired.

  • Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
