Mexican Food Recipes

THis is kinda messy, but really good My sister brought these to a christmas dinner.

About 2 packages of little smokies, 1 package of frozen meatballs, barbecue sauce & a jar of apricot preserves. dump it all into a crockpot and let it go. I think she cooked it on low all day long. They were a big hit at christmas dinner.
