Add Meatballs: Place frozen meatballs into the slow cooker.

Make Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together sweet chili sauce, grape jelly, soy sauce, ketchup, rice vinegar, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes.

Combine: Pour the sauce over the meatballs and gently stir to coat.

Cook:

Serve: Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve warm.

Use homemade meatballs for a fresher flavor—just brown them first before adding to the slow cooker.
Stir halfway through cooking to ensure even coating.
Keep warm on the “warm” setting for parties—these hold well for hours.
If sauce gets too thick, add a splash of water or broth.

Spicy Kick: Add sriracha or extra red pepper flakes.
Pineapple Twist: Add 1 cup pineapple chunks for a tropical flavor.
BBQ Fusion: Replace half the chili sauce with your favorite BBQ sauce.
Healthier Option: Use turkey or chicken meatballs.
Sticky Asian Style: Add 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce and fresh minced garlic & ginger.
