Ingredients

2 lb (907 g) gluten-free fully cooked meatballs, thawed labeled gluten-free
3 tbsp (38 g) packed brown sugar
3 tbsp (63 g) honey
3/4 cup (180 ml) ketchup labeled gluten-free
2 tbsp (30 ml) sriracha sauce labeled gluten-free
3 tbsp (45 ml) gluten-free soy sauce labeled gluten-free
3 garlic cloves (9 g), minced
2 tbsp (12 g) sliced green onions

Gluten-free: Written so a reader with celiac disease can cook it when every packaged ingredient is one whose label says gluten-free. Read the package you actually buy. This page does not promise a meal with zero gluten.

Method

Whisk the soy sauce, sriracha sauce, ketchup, honey, brown sugar, and garlic until the sauce is smooth.
Put the thawed meatballs in a 4-quart cooker, pour the sauce over them, and stir until every meatball is coated.
Set the lid on. LOW takes 3 hours; HIGH takes 2 hours.
Stir once when the cook is about halfway done.
A meatball from the center of the pot should read 165 F (74 C).
Scatter the green onions on top.

Notes

Thaw the meatballs in the refrigerator before they start. Do not put them in the pot while they are still frozen.
Meatballs, ketchup, sriracha sauce, and soy sauce need a gluten-free label. Honey and brown sugar do not.
These are already fully cooked, so the pot is only heating them through. Pull one from the center and check 165 F (74 C).
