This is a quick and easy slow cooker recipe. Sriracha and honey come together perfectly as the hot and sweet sauce. If you like the meatballs more sweet than spicy, then simply add more honey. The meatballs stay really moist and tender and the sauce soaks up a lot of the meaty flavour with that long and slow cooking process.

- Combine sriracha, honey, minced garlic and lime juice in a slow cooker on high heat.
- In a large bowl add all the meatball ingredients and mix until well combined. Shape the mixture into meatballs about the size of pingpong balls.
- Stir sriracha sauce in the slow cooker until combined. Taste and add additional honey or sriracha as necessary to suit your heat preference. Add in sliced onions, then the meatballs. Reduce heat to medium and cook, covered, for 4-5 hours.

Oh I love this! what a great use of sriracha, I know they are tasty just looking at the ingredients XD
I love that you have made these in the slow cooker, and even better that they have sriracha on them, as I am sriracha obsessed at the moment.
Heavenly, just that I need to replace beef with lamb for the same loveable flavours.
Hi Angie, this is definitely a delicious dish. I would never imagine using sriracha sauce this way. Sriracha combined with honey ... Awesome! Thank you for sharing.
Looks like a lovely comfort food! I would love such meatballs!
These meatballs look juicy and tender, love the sauce. I can imagine myself having it with some steamed rice, Yum! :)

Slow cooked meatballs are best due to the infusion of the flavors and the spicy sriracha sauce with the touch of honey makes it even special. Nice share!
Oh my, this is comfort food to me, Angie. It looks absolutely delicious! ^.^
I love a great slow cooker recipe! I love that yours has such few ingredients for the entire recipe and you just set it and forget it!
I love meatballs, Angie. I was just planning to make a batch of Swedish meatballs, but I think I should make these instead. I can just taste them now!
Oh interesting the way you have cooked these Angie. Meatballs are always a winner! Have a nice weekend!
They look juicy and succulent! What a delicious treat!
I am always looking for new meat recipes to cook for the other half as I think he gets bored eating vegetarian a lot of the time, I am sure he will love these :D

Now, that puts a kick in my meatballs!!! The addition of honey gives it a sweet heat. Love it!
Did you serve it alone or with a grain?
Velva
These look terrific - and I love the idea of making them in the slow cooker!
@Velva We had this with quinoa and rice.
they sound quite flavorful!
I love sriracha, what a great way to use it, must give this a try!
Oh my gosh...I'm sending this recipe to my kids who got me horribly hooked on sriracha! But I especially love the pairing of honey with it. A nice, sweet heat! I'm making these this week! : )
I love these meatballs. Honey,lime sriracha, what a delicious sauce to cook meatballs in. This is in my make this week book. Thanks for sharing a great recipe. I love meatballs:)
I love meatballs and usually have them with a Spanish or Italian-style sauce. I'm intrigued by this sweet sauce - I have to try!!!
Estas albóndigas están de lujo me encantan,abrazos
I love spicy food - these look and sound delicious! Can't wait to try
This sure is comfort food at its best.
These meatballs look fantastic, Angie. Love juicy and tender they are. Sweet and spicy flavors go well together! YUM!
My husband would especially LOVE these spicy meatballs.
These sound amazing! We love sriracha and meatballs are always a hit with our family. I’ll have to do this soon!
Oh Angie, these meatballs with Sriracha look amazing...packed with flavors...beautifully done!
Have a great week :)
I bet these are amazing! Can't go wrong with Sriracha!
What a coincidence Angie, I just posted a sriracha recipe on my blog yesterday! Great minds...
I've never thought to add sriracha to meat balls, but it's really a logical step, my very rich Italian meatballs contains a hotly spiced Bomba which is also home made and adds a delicious depth of flavour to the dish, as would a home-made sriracha sauce!

In my book, Sriracha is like bacon. Everything is better with it. :) I'm sure these meatballs would be great without it, but with it - they've got to be freaky fabulous! I don't have a slow cooker, but I'm sure I can figure out how to make these without one. Great recipe Angie!
I think we are both in a slow cooker mood! What delicious meatballs!
Angie-your site is always filled with amazing photos and recipes! I'm a huge meatball lover and with the Sriracha, oh wow!!!
Dear Angie, These are such tasty and delicious looking meatballs. They would disappear in a NY minute!! xo Catherine
That is too funny, we are learning how a new colleague only eats super spicy and the joke is the Sriracha bottle at lunch. Will share with her and I am sure I would love this too!
YUM! I loves sriracha on everything, but never thought about meatballs. Definitely going to try these…
This sounds fabulous Angie. Meatballs are always a hit and sriracha puts it over the top!
These meatballs sound yummy! I love the sauce that you have with them.
I love anything with Sriracha! This is mouthwatering.
Oh my gosh, I love that you made sriracha honey meatballs! Seriously, great minds :) These would be a hit at our house for sure!
Hi Angie, wow... this is awesome. I need 2 plates of rice. :))
Best regards.
Amelia
Oh, I love this so very much Angie. Love sriracha and you've used the slow cooker, yay. I need to invest in a slow cooker, seems like fun and easy.
xoxo
