I've been using this recipe, but I add some crush red peppers.

You can swap the Chilli sauces with hot ketchup. Been doing it for years. Change it up. No one will know how you made them and they are great!

Try making it with cocktail wieners and grape jelly. So good for parties.

Making these as we speak. Used the exact recipe with store bought meatballs and they're amazing!

Made this for Easter potluck at work. Super delicious! Besides the chili sauce also added, honey BBQ w grape jelly! Yummy! Bon apetit!

Frozen or homemade meatballs, two jars concord grape jelly and two jars shrimp coctaol sauce. Put all ingredients onto crockpot and let cook until meatballs are completely cooked.

My family enjoy this recipe. I use bbq sauce and grape jelly and it turns out great.

I use grape jam & equal amount of ketchup. I also use this with the little einies in a crock pot. Yummy everyone loves them! Enjoy!

I never cooked meatballs before and used your Grape Jelly Meatballs recipe to host over 100 people. They turned out great and everyone loved them!!!!!

Tried these for the first time; so easy to make and they were a hit at my pot luck!!

I think adding the mustard is great for those who don't like sweet meat! Nice suggestion!!

Some of the suggestions sound great - others sound really gross. LOL Anchovies? Sauerkraut? Just the word sauerkraut makes me gag! That being said, to each his own. Use whatever makes them taste great to you. The Mama Rosa (I think) brand of cocktail-sized Italian meatballs carried at Walmart and Sam's are really good. I was a meatball snob since I'm Italian. But I have lots to do and if i can get out of rolling a hundred or more meatballs, I'll do it.

There's also a recipe for cocktail meatballs or l'il smokies that uses orange juice but I don't know what other ingredients. Anyone have that recipe?

I am sure this recipe is delicious but for as long as I can remember, my Mother & Grandmother made these but used bar-b-que sauce & grape jelly & they are amazing...but I will have to try it with the chili sauce & see how it taste..ty for this!!

I recently made a version of this recipe and pumped it up a bit by adding 1 tablespoon of garlic, 2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard and 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. I used 2 lb. of frozen meatballs, 1 cup concord grape jelly and 1 bottle of chili sauce. The folks at the office raved over it.

I love this recipe! I once couldn't find chili sauce so I grabbed a Frank's Chili lime and gave it a whirl, omg!! And I haven't been able to find that variety since :(
