1. 3# gr. beef to 1# sausage. I use sriracha ketchup and add spices : cumin, blackened seasoning, & smoked paprika. (and of course peppers,onions, egg & bread crumbs. It’s a large meatloaf for 2 people, but next day slice and fry crisp for sandwiches. Still a lot left to freeze for using later in a dynamite chili !

1. BOMB-FREAKING.COM!!!The Italian breadcrumbs aka Italian seasoned Croutons is what I used and added a tasty amount of honey bbq sauce bout 1/4cp. I only used 1.0lb ground. Kids were sure to declare their dislike for meatloaf period!Well not after tonight, they loved it and no more dad loaf its mom loaf for here forward!!!thanks for the great ideas!
2. I have made this twice…first time by the recipe second tine was what i had around. I used 1lb of ground pork, 1lb of lean ground beef, 1lb of 75/25 ground beef, no ketchup, a whole medium chopped onion, 2 cups of italian style bread crumbs and a whole packet of onion soup mix…honestly both ways were great but the second one was outstanding. My family arent huge tomatoe product fans. Cooked it the same way and all. Thanks for the inspiration!!!!
3. I followed the recipe but made a couple changes. I don’t care for green peppers in my meatloaf. too overpowering for me. I used Beefy Onion soup mix. 2lbs 80-20 ground beef, 1lb ground pork. Topped it off with ketchup and brown sugar glaze. Put it on top off 3 pieces of white bread. This is the best meatloaf I have ever made..KEEPER!!!

1. My Family adores my meatloaf…I use 3 lbs. of 80/20 Ground Chuck…add an egg for every pound of meat. Crush up one sleeve package of Ritz Crackers, add ketchup, mustard, worchester sauce, Italian Bread Crumbs, and one package of Lipton’s Beefy onion soup, pepper and Lawrey’s seasoning salt. (I have never measured anything…just a squirt here and there, and sprinkle here and there…mix and bake..then top off with ketchup, Barbecue Sauce and Brown sugar mixed together. It’s always wonderful!! O:)

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Southern Maine The Way Life Should Be with my husband of 30 years, 2 teenage kids and my dog a 130 pound Rottweiler lap dog! During the summer we stay across the street from Wells Beach in our small Maine Cottage and the rest of the year in our house in Lyman which is about 1/2 hour from President Bush’s compound at Walkers Point in Kennebunkport. I have a great sense of humor and love to laugh. I love to cook. My pet peeve is people who have no manners; like saying please and thank you, etc. etc. and salespeople who chew gum! <br> <br><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket – Video and Image Hosting> <br><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg> <br> <br><a href=http://www.maploco.com/view.php?id=2784515><img border=0 src=http://www.maploco.com/vmap/2784515.png alt=Visitor Map></a><a href=http://www.maploco.com/>Create your own visitor map!</a> <br><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg> <br><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg>
