Meatballs
- 1 lb extra-lean ground beef
- 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 1 yellow onion, grated
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
Sauce
- 3/4 cup BBQ sauce
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Mix sauce together in a large bowl and set aside.
In another large mixing bowl, mix meatballs together until combined. Heat a large skillet over high heat then sear meatballs for 2-3 minutes each side until lightly cooked and browned.
Gently add meatballs to crockpot with tongs, then cover with sauce. Cook on high for 2 hours, or on low for 4 hours.
Serve with toothpicks or in meal prep bowls with steamed broccoli. Leftovers will last up to 5 days in the fridge, and meatballs can be frozen up to 3 months. Enjoy!
Brown your meatballs first so they don't fall apart.
If you're using frozen meatballs, cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6 hours.
Make this recipe healthier by using ground turkey instead of ground beef.
Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days then reheat in the microwave, on the stovetop or in the crockpot.
Freeze the meatballs either cooked or uncooked for 3 months.
