6. Put a thin layer of sauce on bottom of crock pot.
7. Carefully roll meatballs into balls and place on layer.
8. then pour another layer onto balls.
9. Lay another layer down of sauce.
10. Carefully roll meatballs into balls and place on layer.
11. repeat until you have used up all of meat.
12. Pour remaining sauce on top, making sure all of meat is covered.
13. Cook on low for 8 hours, or high for 5.
14. These are a soft meatball, so you will need to carefully pull them back out when you eat them.
15. If you so choose, when you put them in the hoagie, cover with some mozzarella.
