This recipe sounds great, I can't wait to try them. Thank You.

Think I can bump the temp up to high and they'll be ready sooner?

These are delicious, will be making these often but mine stuck together. Any suggestions?

Should I brown them first?

Thanks

These meat balls are the best i have ever eaten since I have been in Sweeden!!!!!!

I don't see why you couldn't brown them a little first to avoid them sticking together.....These sound so good!!! TY  Just love these recipes!! TY

 Years ago, I had (and have since lost) a recipe for some coktail meatballs that were to be placed on a glass pie plate or some other microwaveable dish, and just barely cooked, then popped into the slow cooker with their sauce. It worked very well.

If you put the sauce in the slow cooker first and then add the meatballs they will not stick together

Thanks for the tip lssrl. I made this recipe according to exact directions. Several of the meatballs stuck together. Next time I will try your tip and see if they come presentable for guests.

The meatballs tasted okay, not great. There certainly was a lot of grease in the crockpot after they were done. I used very lean meat, too. It was hard to skim that off and serve the sauce over the meatballs so they wouldn't be greasy. There were no other complaints from anyone else about this, so maybe it was just my problem, but I won't be making these again since I already have a pretty good recipe for meatballs.

Ground beef is often quite greasy. If you see grease floating on top (don't stir)

blot for a few minutes with a few layers of paper towel. It works for me.. No grease!

I Agree there is to much grease.

I use ground venison with no fat added. No grease problem.
