Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, chicken sausage, onion, garlic, egg, egg white, breadcrumbs, parsley, thyme, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
Using a rounded tablespoon for each portion, shape the mixture into meatballs and arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until just cooked through, about 15 minutes.
Place the meatballs in a slow cooker/crockpot and pour the sauce over top. Gently stir to coat the meatballs.
Set the crockpot to HIGH heat and cook until the sauce has thickened, about 1 ½ hours. Serve with toothpicks, drizzling the extra sauce over top.
The Sauce:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the blackberry preserves, ¼ cup chicken broth, rice vinegar and chili garlic sauce.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoon chicken broth, soy sauce and cornstarch. Whisk this mixture into the blackberry preserves mixture.
