Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5–2 lbs frozen meatballs
  • 2 cups beef broth or stock
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped (or 1 packet onion soup mix)
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (or 1 tsp garlic powder)
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch or flour (for thickening)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional seasonings: 1/2 tsp paprika or 1/2 tsp dried thyme

Instructions

  1. Place frozen meatballs in the slow cooker.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together beef broth, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, chopped onion (or soup mix), garlic, and seasonings.
  3. Stir in mushrooms if using.
  4. Pour sauce mixture over meatballs.
  5. Cover and cook on Low for 4–6 hours or High for 2–3 hours, until meatballs are heated through and flavors have melded.
  6. For a thicker gravy, whisk cornstarch or flour with a little cold water to make a slurry. Stir into the slow cooker during the last 15–30 minutes until sauce thickens.

Notes

For healthier alternatives, use low-sugar ketchup or serve with cauliflower mash. Leftovers freeze well.
