You could just cook the meatballs in the sauce although you will experience grease in the sauce, it is better to pre-cook them first - please adjust the amount of brown sugar, you might want to start with only 1/2 cup and add in more to taste - this is *very* good!

1 1/2 cups ketchup
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 teaspoons fresh minced garlic
