Put meatballs in a slow cooker, but the next 2 ingredients will make it special

Honey buffalo wings might get kicked to the curb after trying these savory meatballs. Slow cooked and simmered in their own sweet and tangy sauce, these meatballs are the perfect meal for after a long day, or even as a starter you can pick up with a toothpick. They’re packed with flavor so no matter the occasion, you’re sure to enjoy them.

These meatballs are also very easy to make, and you can even prepare all the ingredients the night before and leave them in the fridge for the next day. Prep time is about 20 minutes, and they take about two hours in the slow cooker.
