Ingredients
  

  • 32 oz frozen homestyle meatballs
  • 1 packet 1 oz ranch dressing mix
  • 1 packet 1 oz au jus gravy mix
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 8 pepperoncini peppers
  • 1/4 cup pepperoncini juice
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter sliced

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Slow Cooker: Place the frozen meatballs directly into the slow cooker.
  • Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together the ranch dressing mix, au jus gravy mix, water, and pepperoncini juice until well combined. Pour this mixture over the meatballs in the slow cooker.
  • Add Butter and Peppers: Top the meatballs with sliced butter and place the pepperoncini peppers on top.
  • Cook: Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours, stirring occasionally to ensure the meatballs are evenly coated and prevent sticking.
  • Serve and Enjoy: Once cooked, serve warm with a generous helping of the sauce. Enjoy as a main course or appetizer!

Notes

Pair with mashed potatoes, pasta, or crusty bread to soak up the sauce. Customize by adding vegetables or adjusting the spice level to your taste. This dish reheats well, making it perfect for leftovers!
