This Slow Cooker Sweet Hawaiian Teriyaki Meatballs Recipe is super easy to make and really good, they are slightly sweet and tasty. I remember when I first began going to sushi restaurants – I am allergic to shellfish and could only eat things like the Spicy Tuna Roll and chicken teriyaki…I had never even had Chicken Teriyaki until my mid-20s! Now I love the flavor and while this isn’t chicken, it is still a super fun twist on the flavor!

Slow Cooker Sweet Hawaiian Teriyaki Meatballs Recipe

This sweet Hawaiian Teriyaki Meatballs Recipe is really more of an appetizer recipe, but it can also easily be served as a lunch or dinnertime meal with a simple side of rice and veggies. The flavor combination between the pineapple preserves and the teriyaki lends a really fun twist and the ketchup and garlic keeps it from being too sweet. They’re just delicious all the way around! 

Don’t they look delicious? They remind me of the Swedish Meatballs people used to make in a slow cooker for office parties. Or those grape jelly and ketchup meatballs that are such a holiday party staple. I remember I used to sit there at the crockpot towards the end of the party and just pick them out one by one, I didn’t even bother with a plate at that point! Ha ha!
