Cooking Instructions
- 1
Combine all ingredients except the sauce and use your hands to mix together. If I feel like it needs more spice, I will add more breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper depending on how much meat I have.
- 2
start forming the meatballs rolling pieces of the meat in your hands
- 3
slightly pan fry meatballs so they are slightly browned on the outside
- 4
Pour sauce into crockpot. I usually add some different Italian spices to the sauce. I also sometimes add red pepper spice to give it a kick.
- 5
add slightly browned meatballs into the crockpot
- 6
Allow meatballs to cook in crockpot for 6-8 hours (the longer the better). I let it cook sometimes up to 10 hours.
- 7
Spoon off excess grease that rose to the top when meatballs are done cooking. Stir and then serve.

My family loves meatballs and this is such an easy way to make them on a busy weeknight. It also means we can serve it in many different ways...for instance my kids prefer spaghetti and meatballs and my husband prefers meatball subs. I like my meatballs and sauce over spaghetti squash. If you're not using a lean meat for this, then you might want to brown the meatballs under the broiler for a few minutes on each side first...this will allow you to drain a lot of the grease before adding the meatballs to the slow cooker.

Baked Italian Meatballs Baked Italian Meatballs
This is my "go to" recipe when I need meatballs. The recipe is large enough that I can divide the quantity in half and freeze some for another meal. I call these Italian because of the seasoning, but they are close enough to Polish because of all the garlic. My husband says these are the best!! Adam Janowski -
