This is a quick and easy meatball recipe that will be great for any party have holiday, tailgate, game night... so many options. I used apple jelly and apple juice. I loved the flavors of the sweet apple combined with tangy chili sauce. Between the chili sauce and few dashes of hot sauce, this gives the sauce a little spice but not overpowering. The whole crew couldn't get enough of these meatballs. I can't wait to try the orange option. Delish! Ideal for a crowd, a buffet or potluck. Always a hit!
