Ingredient list

1 can (14-1/2 oz.) diced tomatoes, undrained
1½ cups barbecue sauce, divided
½ tsp. onion powder
2 lb. extra-lean ground beef
2 eggs
25 PREMIUM Unsalted Tops Saltine Crackers, finely crushed (about 1 cup)
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Directions

Heat oven to 375ºF.

Combine tomatoes, 3/4 cup barbecue sauce and onion powder in slow cooker; cover with lid. Cook on HIGH until ready to add meatballs.

Meanwhile, cover 2 rimmed baking sheets with foil; spray with cooking spray. Mix meat, eggs, cracker crumbs, cheese and remaining barbecue sauce. Shape into 72 small meatballs, using about 1 Tbsp. meat mixture for each. Place on prepared baking sheets. Bake 15 min. or until done.

Add meatballs to slow cooker; stir to evenly coat with sauce. Reduce heat to LOW to keep meatballs warm until ready to serve right from slow cooker.
