Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds frozen fully cooked meatballs beef, turkey, chicken, plant based
  • 1 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 8 oz pineapple chunks drained

Instructions

  • Pour the frozen meatballs into the basin of a 6 qt slow cooker.
  • Pour in the teriyaki sauce and drained pineapple chunks.
  • Stir so the meatballs are evenly coated.
  • Cover and cook on HIGH for 2.5-3 hours or LOW for 6 hours.
  • Serve!

Notes

Use 2 pounds of your favorite frozen, fully cooked meatball. Beef is shown but chicken, pork, turkey, or plant/veggie based all work well.
I use a 6 quart slow cooker but as small as 4 quart will work.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
