Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degree F. For meatballs, in a large mixing bowl combine the egg, crushed graham crackers, onion, cranberries, milk, and cloves. Add ground pork and ham. Shape into 50 meatballs.

Lightly coat a 15x10x1-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place meatballs in pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until no longer pink inside. Drain meatballs.

Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan stir together the cranberry sauce, chili sauce, vinegar, and dry mustard. Cook over medium heat until cranberry sauce is melted, stirring occasionally.

In a 3-1/2- to 5-quart crockery cooker combine the baked meatballs and smoked sausage links. Pour sauce over meatballs and links. Cover; cook on high-heat setting for 2 to 3 hours. Serve immediately or keep warm on low-heat setting for up to 2 hours. Serve with toothpicks. Makes 25 appetizer servings.
