Recipe by: Mom's clipping from a 1960's women's magazine Combine the first 9 ingredients, mixing well. Shape into 1" meatballs. Co in an electric skillet in hot shortening over medium heat for 10-15 minutes or until browned. Drain on paper towels. Discard grease.

Combine chili sauce and grape jelly in a medium saucepan (or same electric skillet); stir well. Add meatballs and simmer on low for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve with toothpicks out of a chafing dish to keep warm.
