" BIG MAC" MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except for cheese; mix well.
• Take approximately 1/2 of meat mix and flatten it out on a sheet of wax paper, sprinkle cheese on top.
• Take one end of meat and roll to other end like a jelly roll.
• Place in a cake pan of sorts.
• Repeat with remaining 1/2 of meat.
• If you like a type of crust on meat loaf, I crush a few crackers add salad dressing and a bit of cheese.
• Spread it on top of the meatloaves.
• Bake at 350°F for about 45 minutes.

BIG FAMILY MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325.
• In a very large bowl put hamburger, crackers crumbled,salt, essence, boullion powder, and black pepper - set aside.
• Cut onion into larger pieces and put it in the food processor with the garlic -- pulse until pieces are small. Dump onion mixture into the bowl with the meat.
• Beat the three eggs (in the food processor if you don't want to dirty a bowl) and add them to the meat bowl.
• Add the tomato sauce to the meat bowl and use your hands to mix all very well (I like to wear rubber gloves to save on clean-up time).
• Divide meat mixture in half. Form into two loaves on the botton of your broiler pan or a roasting pan. Leave room between loaves for even baking.
• In smaller bowl mix together with a fork; ketchup, brown sugar, water, mustard and cider vinegar. This is your topping -- Brush tops and sides of loaves with this before baking and again while baking.
• Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and 25 minutes.
• When I remove the pan from the oven I like to pour off the excess oil in the bottom of the pan. Let cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Slice thick and pieces should hold together well.
