Slow Cooker BBQ Meatball Subs
Dinner ruts are the worst. Getting stuck in a never-ending merry-go-round of tacos, baked chicken, pizza, spaghetti and meatballs and casseroles for weeks on end can only lead to feeling bored in the kitchen. Boring for the cook and boring for everyone gathering around the table, but I get it. Ease and convenience often take precedence over the need to feel creative. Having your shopping list and dinner prep steps on auto pilot isn’t always a bad thing, but sometimes it’s good to switch things up a bit especially if the new thing is simple, delicious, and bound to get everyone excited about pulling up a chair for dinner.
Hello slow cooker BBQ meatball subs.

If you like you can make the meatballs ahead of time and freeze or refrigerate them. If it will be more than two days before you toss them in the slow cooker, freeze them. You can toss them right into the crockpot frozen or you can thaw them in the refrigerator over night.
