Ingredients

  • 27ouncesBavarian-style sauerkraut, undrained

  • 1(16 ounce) canwhole cranberry sauce

  • 1(12 ounce) bottletomato-based chili sauce

  • 1cupwater

  • 1cuppacked brown sugar

  • 1(16 ounce) packagefrozen meatballs

Cooking Directions

  1. Mix sauerkraut, cranberry sauce, chili sauce, water, and brown sugar together in a mixing bowl until well combined.

  2. Place meatballs into a slow cooker. Pour in sauce and mix until meatballs are coated. Cover and cook on Medium, stirring occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), about 4 hours.

Tips

Sometimes I substitute pineapple juice for the water and add a can of pineapple chunks.

Editor’s Note:

If your slow cooker only has High and Low settings, try 2 to 3 hours on High or 5 to 6 on Low. The most important indicator will be the internal temperature, which needs to be at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C).
