  • Season the meatball mixture well: Use a variety of herbs and spices to create a flavorful meatball.
  • Brown the meatballs before cooking them in the crock pot: This will help to seal in the flavor and prevent the meatballs from drying out.
  • Use a variety of sauces: You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own. Some popular options include tomato sauce, barbecue sauce, and teriyaki sauce.
  • Cook the meatballs on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours: This will give the meatballs time to cook through and absorb the flavor of the sauce.
