Notes
Frozen Meatballs: Use any brand or variety of frozen meatballs. No need to thaw—just dump them straight into the slow cooker. Beef Broth: For a less salty flavor, use reduced-sodium beef broth and gravy mix. Cornstarch Slurry: Use 2 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water for a thick gravy. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
