Balls and Weenies

We used Hillshire Farm and Nathan's this time. both were good.

This is my go to for any kind of party. It's so simple it will blow your mind. You need:

Ro-tel ( if you cant find this use onion, pepper and tomatoes or salsa)
bar-b-q sauce
lil' smokies
and meat balls (use ready made frozen ones)
 
Place all ingredients in a slow cooker and cook till sauce gets thick. You can add water if needed. This may not be the healthiest snack food but everyone all ways raves over it. I say make the people happy.
