Take a tip from the hofbrau: beer is a great way to flavor meat, as in these ultra-easy appetizers using frozen meatballs.

Ingredients
  1. 2 (1-lb.) pkg. (about 64) frozen cooked meatballs, thawed
  2. 1 medium onion, sliced
  3. 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  4. 3 tablespoons beefy onion soup mix (from 2.2-oz. pkg.)
  5. 1 (12-oz.) can beer
Instructions
  1. In 3 or 3 1/2-quart slow cooker, combine meatballs and onion. Sprinkle brown sugar and soup mix over beef and onion. Pour beer over top.
  2. Cover; cook on Low setting for 5 to 6 hours.
  3. Just before serving, gently stir mixture to coat meatballs with sauce. Serve with toothpicks. Meatballs can be held on Low setting for up to 1 hour.
Notes
  1. * Do not lift the lid during slow cooking. Each time the lid is removed, it takes 20 minutes to bring the food to proper cooking temperature. If you have to sneak a peek, very carefully twirl the round lid, removing the condensation so you can see inside.
