I found this recipe about 2 years ago and have made them many times since. I get a lot of requests for these! I use my own meatloaf recipe and bake the meatballs in the oven then put the sauce over them in the slow cooker. I have never found pineapple preserves but usually use the pineapple topping meant for ice cream topping. Last time I used apricot-pineapple preserves and that seemed especially good. Thanks for the recipe Lois!!

They came out like hard little sweet balls of tuff meat. I followed the recipe exactly.

I couldn't find the pineapple preserves and used orange marmalade instead. They turned out very well and had a unique, sweet flavor.

I did not like the texture of preserves in this. I wish I had used canned pineapple instead.

Altering a recipe makes it a different recipe. This recipe is perfect just the way it's suppose to be.

I hesitate to review, since I substituted crushed, canned pineapple- the preserves are very expensive and rare here. (I don't always like reviews where they have changed everything so much you can't recognize it) However, the meatballs turned out great, with a good flavor. Slightly less sugar this way too.

These were a hit at our family dinner on Christmas night. The crowd was huddled around them, and I could hear the words "awesome," "delicious," and "wonderful." Will definitely make them again for the next gathering.

These were a huge hit and the first appetizer gone at a Christmas party I went to this year. The only thing I did different was use apricot preserves because I couldn't find the pineapple at my grocery store...oh, and I added some brown sugar to the sauce! Will definetley make these again.

I've been making these for years and everyone loves them. I use two jars of pineapple preserves and throw them into the crockpot for parties! Very easy.

I mixed 1 lb of lean beef with 1 lb of sweet italian sausage (and the other ingredient in the recipe). I browned the meatballs in a skillet and then cooked them on high for 2 hours in the crockpot with the sauces. I was unable to find pineapple preserves so I used 8 oz of duck sauce and 8 oz of sweet and sour and mixed that with a bottle of KC Sweet homestyle bbq sauce. These are excellent on rice and the next day I bought sub rolls and had meatball subs with cheese and ranch dressing. VERY GOOD!

I crunched up a bunch of seasoned toast to make the breadcrumbs, used a honey BBQ Sauce, and omitted the pineapple. I'm not allowed to go to parties without these anymore.

I tried this recipe 3 weeks ago and I am making it again tonight. I dont want to burn my family out, but this is one of those things you just have to make over and over. I used apricot/pineapple preserves because I could not find Pineapple preserves solo.

These were a huge hit at my birthday gathering! Not one of the quadrupled recipe was left. I followed almost as directed but pineapple preserves are expensive in my parts. So I added just a small amount of brown sugar & about a tsp. of pineapple juice to make up for some more sweet. This is definately a keeper.

These were pretty yummy. I made them and cooked them in the oven for 25 minutes on cookie sheets. Then I added them to a slow cooker with the preserves and bbq sauce on low for 2 hours. They turned out great. Next time I might add about 3/4ths of a cup of water so the sauce isn't so thick.

Used ground pork instead of ground beef and they turned out PERFECT. Loved the pork flavor with the pineapple. This has become one of my BLOCKBUSTER HITS. In fact, I've even put it in my personal cookbook and shared it with others. Never fails that I get compliments on this recipe.

I've never been much of a fan of sweet & sour meatballs but wow, these are delicious. Instead of the pineapple preserves I mixed KC Masterpiece with a bottle of sweet & sour sauce.
