Servings 40
Ingredients
- 2 lbs pre-cooked frozen mini meatballs
- 12 oz beer
- 18 oz BBQ Sauce
- 8 oz pepper jelly
- 1 tbsp granulated garlic
- 2 tsp chili powder
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
For pressure cooker
- 6 oz beef broth *replacing 6 oz of the beer
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a large saucepan or shallow stockpot. (I used my cast iron dutch oven)
- Bring to medium-high heat. Let cook for 2-4 min
- Once the sauce begins to boil, reduce heat to a simmer.
- Let cook for 15 minutes or until sauce has darkened & reduced (meatballs are already cooked- so they should just be hot) Remove & serve!
- Enjoy!
For pressure cooker
- Combine all of the ingredients in the pot & stir.
- Swap out half of the beer with water – (you don’t want too much carbonation in the pressure cooker)
- Cover & set on to seal, manual for 5 minutes.
- Quick-release, remove lid & stir again before serving at your game-day or holiday party.
Notes
To make in the air fryer - use frozen meatballs and cook at 400 for 8-12 minutes. Combine the sauce ingredients in a small bowl, then toss the cooked meatballs in the sauce.
