Smoky Meatballs

Comfort food on a skewer!

Sometimes simplicity is better. We took meatballs and created a tasty sauce for them with just two simple store bought ingredients. That gives you less time in the kitchen and more time with friends or watching the game! Serve these warm with some toothpicks or cocktail forks and watch them disappear! They’re comfort food on a skewer! Easy, fast and make ahead. Check!

"Easy, fast and make ahead. Check!"

What are the two magic ingredients? A mild smooth salsa and smoky barbecue sauce. The combination is smoky with just a little kick. The sauce is thick enough to cling to the meatballs so it’s not too drippy. Serve these warm for game day in a crock pot, serving tray or take them to tailgate.
