Description
These Honey Garlic BBQ Crockpot Meatballs are the perfect appetizer or lunch idea. They’re so easy to make with less than 10 ingredients!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb extra-lean ground beef
- 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 1 yellow onion, grated
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 3/4 cup BBQ sauce
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Instructions
- Step 1: Mix sauce together in a large bowl and set aside.
- Step 2: In another large mixing bowl, mix meatballs together until combined. Heat a large skillet over high heat then sear meatballs for 2-3 minutes each side until lightly cooked and browned.
- Step 3: Gently add meatballs to crockpot with tongs, then cover with sauce. Cook on high for 2 hours, or on low for 4 hours.
- Step 4: Serve with toothpicks or in meal prep bowls with steamed broccoli.
Notes
Brown your meatballs first so they don’t fall apart. If you’re using frozen meatballs, cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6 hours. Store any leftovers in the fridge for 5 days then reheat in the microwave for 1-2 mins. Freeze the meatballs either cooked or uncooked for 3 months.
