FANTASTIC SWEET AND SOUR BARBECUE MEATBALLS
These are from our church cookbook, and are incredibly delicious as a main dish served over hot, cooked rice. They also make wonderful sandwiches. The brown sugar amount for the sauce can be adjusted. Lately 2 and 1/4 c of brown sugar has become too sweet for me!

CHELLE'S FAMOUS SWEET AND SOUR MEATBALLS
I make this using Recipe #196018. This is one of my family's favorites...even my husband's family (mother-in-law and her friends, sister-in-law, brother-in-laws, etc.) All seem to like these. I like to serve them with my Crab Wontons as an appetizer when serving to guests. ;) They go great in a crockpot for parties, bbq's, potlucks, etc. and I am usually requested to bring them!! Amounts can vary depending on number of meatballs you make. ;) ****You can add green pepper, red pepper and additional pineapple if you want more veggies - I usually don't unless I need to stretch it!
