I was a little wary of this - wasn't sure about the grape jam and chili sauce but it really is great. You can't tell it's grape jam and it adds a slightly sweet flavor to them. I thought it was excellent.

Love these. I have even used sliced smoked sausage in a pinch. Wieners work too.

This sauce works great for meatballs too. I get so many compliments and requests for the recipe - it's almost embaressing. You can use the frozen meatballs and add them to the sauce while it's cooking. Enjoy!

These are yummy little treats!!! We often make these as little appetizers at a potluck or family get-together. A very easy, very quick, and very delicious recipe. Thanks for posting!

A member of a church I went to gave me this recipe almost 20 years ago. She always used meatballs, but I prefer Smokies. Only difference is that she uses salsa instead of chili sauce. I think it tastes so much better.
