Comfort Food Series: Sweet and Sour Meatballs {Slow Cooker Recipe}

I have a simple meatball recipe that can be used in a hundred different ways.  This sauce recipe was created from my desire to have sweet and sour meatballs, but needing to cut out pineapple which is the usual ingredient in most preparations.  I have a serious pineapple allergy so have adapted this to taste and look much like the other sweet and sour sauces I loved before.

Sweet & Sour Sauce

1/4 cup water
1/2 ketchup
1/4 cup white vinegar
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons of orange juice
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon of pepper
1 yellow pepper chopped really fine
2 lbs meatballs

Mix all the ingredients together in the slow cooker and add meatballs.
Cook on HIGH for 4 hours, or LOW for 6-7 hours.
