THE BEST CROCK POT SWEDISH MEATBALLS

WHAT DO I SERVE WITH SWEDISH MEATBALLS?
I love to make this a full on comfort meal. I like to serve with some steamed green beans and my BUTTER DIP BISCUITS. So, so good! And for dessert you gotta have my EASY HOMEMADE BLUEBERRY COBBLER.
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
cream of mushroom soup
beef broth, low sodium
dry onion soup mix (or MAKE YOUR OWN)
A1 steak sauce
frozen meatballs
sour cream
egg noodles
STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS TO MAKE CROCK POT SWEDISH MEATBALLS:
In a 5-6 quart slow cooker, mix undiluted soup with beef broth, onion soup mix and steak sauce. Stir well.
Then add in frozen meatballs.
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high 3-5 hours.
When meatballs are ready, stir in sour cream.
At this time, put a pot of water on the oven to boil for your egg noodles (make according to package directions.) Drain noodles well when done.
Mix noodles and meatballs together.
Or serve meatballs on top of noodles.
COOK’S TIPS: If I’m serving for a crowd, I will mix together and keep my crock pot on the ‘warm’ or ‘buffet’ setting. But when it’s just my family, everyone can serve themselves and grab as many meatballs and sauce as they like.
Enjoy!

Nikki says
Apologies if someone has already asked this but do you think I could substitute plain Greek yogurt for sour cream?
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hey Nikki! I don’t see why not. If you try it – please let us know how it turns out for you! 🙂
Dawn says
Can you substitute any thing else for the cream of mushroom soup. No one likes it in my house.
Dawn says
Okay, Thanks for replying to me. I really appreciate it. I get most of my recipes that I can never find off here and I can’t even get one reply. Not the first, wont be asking a question again.
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hey Dawn! So sorry. I am only one person (not a corporation.) The time when you last commented I was getting emergency surgery on my esophagus which put me down and out for a few weeks. Yes, you can use cream of chicken, cream of potato or even cream of bacon. You don’t taste the mushrooms as a separate ingredient in this recipe though.
Samantha says
You’re a nut job. The world doesn’t revolve around you, lady.
Linda D says
Great taste, so easy! Husband and I absolutely loved it!
Trish in VA says
I have made (and shared!) this recipe many times. It’s easy, and it’s delicious!! So glad you reposted this again. Thanks!
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hi Trish! Thanks so much! I really appreciate it!!
Julee Sundstrom says
These were so delicious!! Has anyone used turkey meatballs instead of regular ones? We have a vegetarian coming for dinner and want to make this again with turkey meatballs. But need to know if they’re good.
Jessica says
If they are vegetarian, turkey meatballs will not work as that is still made from an animal
Tracy says
How big of a container of sour cream do you add?
Katie says
My family and I love this recipe. We are a BIG family so I usually do a 3 lb bag of meatballs and double the sauce stuff. Sooooo goooooood.
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hi Katie! Thank you so much for taking the time to come back and leave feedback. It makes my day!! So happy y’all loved this one. It’s one of my personal favorites too!! 🙂
Linda Brown says
Katie,
When you double the sauce and add an extra pound of meatballs, how much longer does it take to cook your meatballs? I’m asking because I’d like to use this recipe for a family reunion and we might have up to 18 people to feed. We could possibly cook two crockpots of this.
Thank you!
Allie says
Delicious and simple enough my boyfriend could make it!
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Ha! I love hearing that Allie. Thank you!!! 🙂
Tammy says
Thank you for sharing this recipe! We love these meatballs and make them quite often. Have you ever made them in an Instant Pot mixed with egg noodles? I want to give it a try to save some time but not sure how it would turn out.
Susan says
Made this last night and it was delicious. I love easy recipes!
Rebecca Morsching says
I’ve made this three times since finding this recipe 2 months ago. It is that good. Yum!
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Woo hoo!! That’s so awesome – thank you Rebecca!!
Jay Morsching says
Five stars for sure. You won’t be disappointed.
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Thanks so much Jay!!
Kayla says
Could I make this recipe on the stove top instead of in the crock
Pot? Planning a meal for tomorrow but realized I don’t have enough frozen meatballs on hand to put it in the crock pot in the morning.
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hi Kayla, I don’t see why not. The main goal is getting those meatballs warmed up all the way through. And don’t cook it too fast. 🙂
