Tasty Tuesday

Today I was craving for meatloaf. Not your regular mothers meatloaf but my meatloaf recipe I found in an old cowboy cookbook. My dad pick up this unique cowboy cookbook one year on our trip to Fort Robertson, Ne. We use to always go to Fort Robertson Park. This cookbook has a lot of good recipes but this is one of my favorites! :)

The ingredients include:

1 pound of hamburger

1/4 pound of ground pork sausage

1 egg

1 tablespoon of butter melted

3 slices of toast, crumbled up

1/2 of an onion, cut up

1 tsp of salt

1/8 tsp of pepper

1/4 tsp of sage 

1/4 tsp of chili powder, don't worry it's not hot 

1 beef boilion cube 

1/2 cup of boiling water

3 slices of bacon

First preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Then you just start with putting together all the ingredients except for the last three and mixing them in a bowl. Make sure to mix it well. ;) After that dissolve the beef boilion cube in the 1/2 cup of boiling water. Once that is all dissolved then pour it over the other ingredients. While being careful, because the water is hot that you just poured in, mix up the mixer again while it soaks up the beef water. It will seem kind of soft but it adds so much flavor. Now it's ready to go into your pan! And no there is to be no ketchup to be put on the top! 

Here is what mine looked liked in my Rachael Ray loaf pan. 

Place it into the oven, after 25 minutes of baking, take it out and place the slices of bacon on top of the meatloaf. Place back into oven and bake for another 30-35 minutes. 

Yummy!!! :) A perfect meal for 2-3 people!

I added to the meal mashed potatoes and creamed corn! I know it's not your traditional meatloaf but it's full of flavor! No offense to your mothers meatloaf;)

Love,
