How to Make Appetizer Meatballs
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, gently combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, Parmesan cheese, onion, and garlic. Do not overmix.
- Roll the meat mixture into approximately 24 meatballs (approximately 1.5 inches in diameter).
- Place meatballs on an ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly browned.
- While the meatballs bake, combine grape jelly and chili sauce in your slow cooker. Stir to combine.
- Once the meatballs are browned, gently transfer them to the slow cooker.
- Stir the meatballs to coat them evenly with the jelly and chili sauce.
- Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours, or until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
