Tips:
- Choose the right type of meat: Ground beef is the most common type of meat used for meatballs, but you can also use ground pork, lamb, or turkey. If you're using ground beef, choose a leaner cut, such as 80/20 or 90/10, to avoid greasy meatballs.
- Season the meatballs well: Meatballs should be well-seasoned with a variety of spices and herbs. Some common seasonings include garlic, onion, parsley, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. You can also add a bit of grated Parmesan cheese or bread crumbs for extra flavor.
- Cook the meatballs thoroughly: Meatballs should be cooked all the way through to avoid foodborne illness. The internal temperature of the meatballs should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Use a slow cooker for easy cooking: If you're short on time, you can cook the meatballs in a slow cooker. Simply combine all of the ingredients in the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours.
- Serve the meatballs with your favorite sauce: Meatballs can be served with a variety of sauces, such as tomato sauce, barbecue sauce, or gravy. You can also serve them on their own with a side of mashed potatoes or rice.

Coca-Cola meatballs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The combination of sweet and savory flavors makes them a perfect appetizer or main course.
