Ever have meatballs or lil’ cocktail smokies that are swimming in a deliciously sweet and spicy sauce? A little known secret is to use a jar of chilis and a jar of grape jelly to get that wonderful flavor, but the meat itself is high in fat and calories. Well Buford got to thinkin’. What about a low fat meat like ground chicken or even ground pork?

3. Return all meatballs together in large pot or dutch oven. Add orange juice and beer or wine. Cover and lower heat; simmer for 10-20 minutes, until meatballs are no longer pink on the inside.
