MEATBALL GRINDERS

Meatball Grinders image

Meatball grinders are perfect for game day. They're hearty enough for a meal or put on sliders for an appetizer. The majority of the work is done in the slow cooker, so it's a hands-off recipe. Lightly frying the meatballs in a skillet, keeps them juicy. As they simmer in the Crock Pot, they absorb the flavors of the tomato sauce. Loaded onto a hoagie roll and topped with Parmesan cheese ... what's not to love?!
