Slow Cooker Cranberry Barbecue Meatballs image

A wonderful appetizer - always highly requested at our parties! From a Betty Crocker Appetizer recipe book - January 2004. I use store-bought meatballs. Meatballs will hold on Low Heat setting for about 2 hours. Hint- Trader Joe's makes a great cranberry-orange sauce, but only at the holidays. To make this recipe at other times, I just create a sauce with canned cranberries and about a 1/4 cup OJ. Enjoy! We sure do!

These meatballs are a great way to use up leftover cranberry sauce. I always have some leftover after Thanksgiving, so this is a great way to use it up.

The meatballs were a little dry. I think I would add more liquid to the sauce next time.

These meatballs were a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of brown sugar next time.

I wasn't sure how the cranberry sauce would taste with the barbecue sauce, but I was pleasantly surprised. It was a great combination.
