Pork & Bison Meatballs with Cranberry Chipotle Ketchup

These bite-sized morsels are so tender and flavorful right out of the oven, but the Cranberry Chipotle Ketchup takes them to another level! Sweet, tart, smokey and sublimely spicy- munching these meatballs may become a new family tradition! The meatballs can be frozen at least 3 weeks beforehand. Just form them into balls on a parchment lined baking sheet and freeze until set, then transfer them to a sealable freezer bag and keep frozen until ready to bake. If baking from frozen add 15 minutes to the baking time.
