“The Charred Kiss BBQ Sauce brings that sweet–spicy balance that clings to the meatballs as they slow-cook — no extra seasoning needed. Simple, bold, and made to feed people you love.”

Ingredients — Meatballs

  • 2 lbs ground beef or ground pork (or 50/50 mix)
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (plain or Italian)
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 small onion, finely minced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1½ tsp salt |  1 tsp black pepper
  • 1½ tsp smoked paprika |  1 tsp onion powder  |  1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried parsley (optional) |  1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce (optional)

Ingredients — Sauce

  • 2½–3 cups Charred Kiss BBQ Sauce (enough to fully coat and lightly submerge meatballs)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, gently mix all meatball ingredients until just combined. Don’t overwork — soft hands = tender meatballs.
  2. Roll into medium-sized meatballs (about 1½ inches). Expect 30–36 meatballs.
  3. Optional but recommended: Brown meatballs in a skillet over medium heat for 2–3 minutes per side to seal in flavor.
  4. Place meatballs in crock pot in an even layer. Pour Charred Kiss BBQ Sauce over top until fully covered.
  5. Cook: Low 4–5 hours | High 2–3 hours. Stir gently once halfway through.
  6. Serve hot straight from the crock pot.
