Beer & Chili Meatballs

These little balls of deliciousness have been an old standby of mine whenever I'm asked to "bring a hearty appy!" because you can make them in bulk and they are so yummy!  I also always add them to my own menus..when I'm hosting a party!  I usually cook them on the stove, and then transfer them to my crockpot and keep it on warm, just to keep them hot!  (They aren't as good served room temperature..or cold!)   And even though they do have beer in them......kids go coo-coo for them!  The alcohol burns off...so don't worry (I never do) ;oP  And they are made with ground turkey, so they are a tad more healthy!  BONUS!!!  

You must make these for the next "bring a hearty (or any) appy!" party!  And you won't be disappointed...NO ONE will!
