I have not even heard of that type of jelly, that’s to bad they stopped making it! If you try it with grape let me know, I hope you enjoy it!
I’ve made these for years. People love them! But I use chili sauce and currant jelly. Not so sweet. Problem is… Can’t find currant jelly easily. Smuckers quit making it. ☹️
I have made this with honey bbq sauce before and enjoy the taste. I think it would taste good but I also have a sweet tooth and the sweetness wouldn’t bother me =)
Does the bbq sauce have to be regular flavor or can it be a sweet flavor bbq sauce. Will the grape jelly with sweet bbq sauce make it taste too sweet?
So happy to hear that!
My family loves these everytime we get together its these and my carrots thanks so much!
Hi Jolene! I don’t find the recipe taste like grapes or is to sweet. But I guess that depends on your sweet tooth =)
I have yet to try it with chicken but I think that would work perfectly!
Hi there have a couple questions does the jelly make it taste like grape or really sweet and also would frozen chicken ball work or would it have a weird flavor with the grape jelly
This is a fantastic quick recipe, thank you for the brilliant write up.
You can definitely make your own meatballs brown and then use those. I know people who love the store bought ones and others who would rather make them. Let me know how you like them that way, I would love to hear how it turned out!
Do you have to use commercial frozen meatballs? Why can’t you make your own, brown , then put in sauce and simmer until done ? I prefer not to use premade/prepackaged food.
Hi Karissa, I have used several different types. I love the Aldi brand. Or any meatball with less fat I think it the best option!
Do you recommend a certain brand meatballs?
Awesome! My mother in law used chili sauce also! So good!!
I’ve made these with chili sauce instead of bbq sauce and they are amazing… I’ve brought them to pot lucks many times and I’m always asked for the recipe .. no pen and paper needed lol
That sounds awesome Linda!! I will have to try it!
apple jelly and ketchup in equal parts makes a sweet and sour sauce
I use a 6 court and had plenty of room.
What size slow cooker does that fill?
Yum
