Notes
Tips & Tricks:
If using homemade meatballs (like my juicy chicken meatballs), be sure to cook them completely before adding to the sauce. Then, just warm them through and serve.
Substitutions:
Instead of homemade blueberry jam, try grape or cranberry!
You can also use sweet chili sauce in place of BBQ sauce.
