Ingredients
  

  • 32 oz bag frozen fully cooked meatballs
  • 12 oz bottle chili sauce
  • 1 cup grape jelly
  • 1 (20 oz) can pineapple chunks in juice, undrained
  • 1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp cold water

Method
 

  1. Whisk the chili sauce, grape jelly, and soy sauce in a slow cooker until the jelly breaks up.
  2. Stir in the frozen meatballs and the undrained pineapple chunks.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 4 to 5 hours or high for 2 to 3 hours, stirring halfway, until the meatballs are hot and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  4. For a thicker glaze, whisk the cornstarch and cold water, stir into the slow cooker, and cook uncovered on high for 15 to 30 minutes. Serve warm.

Notes

Keep the meatballs on the warm setting for parties and stir once in a while. If you need this gluten-free, use gluten-free meatballs and tamari in place of soy sauce.
