I did not really care for these at all, the sauce tasted somewhat off to me.

We made a huge batch of these for a house dedication service. Everyone loved them! They have a great balance of spice and sweet. Best of all they are super simple to make!

I made my own meatballs, but the sauce was a great hit with all. I have been asked to make it for parties.
