Ingredients
Scale
- 1 bag (26 oz) frozen meatballs (about 30–35 meatballs)
- 2 cups reduced-sodium beef broth
- 1 packet brown gravy mix
- 1 packet onion soup mix
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
Instructions
- Place the frozen meatballs in the slow cooker.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the beef broth, brown gravy mix, onion soup mix, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce until smooth.
- Pour the mixture over the meatballs in the slow cooker, stirring to combine.
- Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours or until the meatballs are heated through and tender.
- In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and cold water to create a slurry.
- About 30 minutes before serving, stir the cornstarch slurry into the slow cooker to thicken the gravy.
- Once the sauce has thickened, serve the meatballs and gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite side dish.
Notes
- Use reduced-sodium beef broth to control salt levels.
- Adjust the amount of cornstarch based on desired thickness of gravy.
