Crock-Pot Meatballs in Brown Gravy

Submitted by Mike Pellerin

"These are baked meatballs that are simmered in a brown gravy in a crockpot. Served with mashed potatos and peas is the way we like to eat them. I don't know the actual ounce size of the gravy packets, but I was asked to type something to clarify it. The packets make 1 cup, so I think you'll be able to figure out what I mean. :)"
