Equipment

  • Crockpot or slow cooker
  • Mixing bowl
  • Measuring spoons
  • Serving spoon or tongs
  • Whisk or Spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 1 20 oz Bag frozen meatballs (or homemade)
  • 1/2 cup Hoisin sauce
  • 2 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • 1/2 tbsp Rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp Brown sugar
  • Green onions diced
  • Sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • Place the meatballs in your crockpot.
  • In a bowl, mix together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, garlic powder, and brown sugar. Pour this sauce over the meatballs.
  • Toss the meatballs to ensure they’re fully coated with the sauce.
  • Cover and cook on high for 1-2 hours or on low for 2-4 hours, stirring occasionally to evenly distribute the sauce.
  • Once the meatballs are cooked, sprinkle them with diced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

  • If using frozen meatballs, opt for homestyle rather than Italian to maintain the Asian flavors without introducing additional spices.
  • This recipe can easily be doubled. If you do, use an 8-quart crockpot for the best results.
