This may also be made using Lil Smokies in place of meatballs --- these are at there best served from a crockpot with a long fork, you may bake the meatballs, cool then freeze just thaw in refrigerator overnight and drop in the simmering sauce, the meatballs may be oven-baked or cooked in a skillet --- you might need to adjust the sauce ingredients to suit taste, if you like more cranberry flavor then increase the cranberry sauce by half a can or one can --- also see my recipe#69173
