BBQ Pineapple Meatballs
BBQ Pineapple Meatballs Recipe - only 3 ingredients!
BBQ Pineapple Meatballs - only 3 ingredients! Serve on top of cut out puff pastry for a festive holiday appetizer. Can make on the stove-top or slow cooker.
This recipe only has 3 ingredients - frozen meatballs, BBQ sauce and 100% DOLE® Canned Pineapple Juice. I used a honey chipotle BBQ sauce to give the meatballs a little kick. The 100% DOLE® Canned Pineapple Juice gave the meatballs a little sweetness and mellowed out the chipotle BBQ sauce. We loved the flavor!
We really love using pineapple juice in all types of recipes. 100% DOLE® Canned Pineapple Juice is so versatile. We love it in smoothies, punch, cocktails, and marinades. We often swap it out for orange juice in recipes. We always have a six-pack in the pantry.
These quick BBQ Pineapple Meatballs can be made on the stovetop in about 20 minutes or simmered for a few hours in the slow cooker. To make the meatballs more festive, I served them on top of some puff pastry cut out in the shape of a star. Perfect for the holidays. If you aren't looking for holiday party food, you can serve the meatballs over some rice or noodles for a quick meal. Either way, you should make these BBQ Pineapple Meatballs. They are delicious!!
