Spicy BBQ Crockpot Meatballs that are the perfect easy slow cooker appetizer for any social gathering. Sweet, spicy, easy to make, these Spicy BBQ Crockpot Meatballs are completely ADDICTIVE!
It’s almost an unwritten rule that if you are having a social gathering of any kind, you better have a mini-crock pot of saucy BBQ meatballs hot,ready and waiting. You can get away with changing up the menu to a point but if those spicy BBQ meatballs aren’t on that table, well .. lets just say that party riots have happened for less. Its just not a party without them. Great music? Yes! Stimulating conversation? Absolutely! Open bar? WOO HOO!!! Meatballs? No??? … party’s a bust! Solution?… Spicy Crockpot Meatballs.
To avoid this disastrous outcome, I hedge my bets. I have one of those 3 pot slow cookers (BEST PRESENT EVER!!) and that gets loaded up with at least two different types of meatballs every time I have people over. This Spicy Crockpot Meatball recipe is my favorite! Its saucy and spicy, sweet and ADDICTIVE… and the best part? It’s easy to put together, it takes all of about 5 minutes to make and it’s only 5 ingredients. FIVE!!!
.. well, technically SIX ingredients but one of those ingredients is garlic so does that even count??? Garlic goes in everything … it’s like air. Or sunshine.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO COOK FROZEN MEATBALLS IN THE SLOW COOKER?
Frozen meatballs will fully cook in the slow cooker in four hours on Low and in two hours on High. That’s why these Spicy BBQ Crock-pot Meatball are perfect… fast and easy!
HOW DO I MAKE SPICY BBQ CROCK-POT MEATBALLS?
Easy! To make your Spicy Crockpot Meatball , mix together ketchup, honey, soy sauce, garlic powder, brown sugar and sriracha in a medium sized mixing bowl. Add frozen meatballs to your crock-pot and pour sauce on top.. stir to coat

Heather,
I am drooling looking at the meatballs- you had me at spicy!
Meatballs are the stars for all parties and just as you said without them the party is not as much fun. If you have meatballs lapped up in yummy sauces looking as delish as these then any party will be rocking. I am drooling at the sight of the meatballs.
meatballs look so so delicious!! I love spicy food!
We tried this recipe last weekend but added a little more sriracha sauce. Delicious!!!! We will definitely be making these again. Already put the recipe in my book so I have it whenever we want to make this.
Can it be doubled?
Yes!! I double this recipe all the time… 🙂
These will be devoured at my next family gatheringl
