Slow Cooker Spicy Meatball Sliders
Slow Cooker Spicy Meatball Sliders | These spicy meatball sliders are sure to please your hungry game watchers. Make the meatballs ahead of time and freeze (in sauce) for a great last minute sandwich. Being able to keep the meatballs warm in a slow cooker is awesome! Just set the slow cooker on low! Another freezer method would be to make the meatballs and freeze them raw. Thaw and bake as directed. They taste even better the next day!
Roll the meat mixture into 1-inch balls and bake.
Place baked meatballs in sauce to simmer.
Simmer in yummy sweet spicy sauce.
You either purchase slider buns or make your own! SLIDER BUNS

How much Apple cider vinegar?
Hi Fay, ½cup of apple cider vinegar.
Can’t wait to try these. I bet they would be great with King’s Hawaiian rolls!!
Hi Joan, They would! The spicy meatball with the sweet bread would make the perfect combo!
These look delish…can you tell me what kind of roll they are inside of??? It kind of looks like a bisquit, or popover, or maybe filo dough??anyway for sure is not just a regular roll….would be very nice to serve at a party…
Hi Virginia, I made the rolls with frozen dough. Here is the link: https://www.ladybehindthecurtain.com/appetizer-sandwiches/
