How to Make Absolutely Awesome Smoky Meatballs
- Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C).
- In a large bowl, gently combine all meatball ingredients until just mixed. Avoid overmixing.
- Roll the mixture into 1-inch meatballs.
- Place meatballs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until lightly browned.
- While meatballs bake, prepare the sauce: In a medium saucepan, whisk together all sauce ingredients.
- Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the sauce slightly thickens (about 5-7 minutes).
- Transfer the baked meatballs to a slow cooker.
- Pour the sauce over the meatballs.
- Cook on low for 4 hours, or until the onions are tender and the meatballs are heated through. Serve hot and enjoy!
