GREAT PUMPKIN MEATLOAF



Great Pumpkin Meatloaf image

Trick or Treat supper baked in a pumpkin. It is amazing how much less candy is gobbled up en route home on Halloween night if the kids start out with tummies happily full of nutritious food. To capture goblins attention before they go on their appointed rounds, serve Great Pumpkin Meatloaf. This fascinating jack-o'-lantern with a meatloaf inside will intrigue goblins, both young and old. Cut the jack-o'-lanterns in wedges and serve as a meat and vegetable in one. To accentuate the bland flavor of the pumpkin, the inside is spread with honey mustard before filling. The meatloaf mixture, enhanced with the zesty flavor of Worcestershire sauce is baked right inside the pumpkin. Complete this nourishing supper with oven roasted potatoes, celery sticks, cucumber slices, whole wheat dinner rolls and milk, plus a crispy apple for desert. This is not an "adult" dinner, but a pleasurable and fun meal for all that are young at heart. Almost any meatloaf recipe can be cooked in a pumpkin, so feel free to experiment. It's all about the presentation! Cooking times may vary depending on the size of the pumpkin and the meatloaf recipe used. (WW 6 points)

Categories     Meatloafs

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 small pie pumpkin, cleaned, will fit inside a 12", deep, dutch oven
1 1/2 lb ground beef
vegetable oil
1/2 lb italian saausage
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 Tbsp gaarlic and onion mrs. dash
2 1/2 c cherios or shredded wheat (unsweetened)
2 eggs
1 can(s) cream of celery soup
1/4 tsp granulated garlic
1 can(s) italian seasoned tomato sauce

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all ingredients in a bowl, except tomato sauce. Warm and oil a 12", deep, Dutch oven.
  • 2. Fill pumpkin with meat mixture and place filled pumpkin inside oven. Pour about 1 ½ c. water in oven and cover.
  • 3. Bake about 1 to 1 ½ hours at 350 degrees F. until done. You can smell the flavors when done.
  • 4. ***Judging temperature is an important skill that needs to be practiced when cooking with a Dutch oven. First off, use only name brands of charcoal. Once you find a brand that you like, stick with that brand. That way you become familiar with how it burns, how long the coals last, etc. When cooking in a Dutch oven, use the 2/3rds rule. The 2/3rds rule is not based on fractions of any number of coals. But, is short hand for figuring out how many coals to use for a 325o to 350o oven. Take the diameter of the oven for the bottom coals and subtract 2. So, if you have a 12" oven, take the diameter (12"), subtract 2 (10 coals). That's the 2 in the 2/3rds rule. For figuring the number of coals for the top heat, again take the diameter of the oven and add 3. So, if you have a 12" oven, take the diameter (12") and add 3 (15 coals). That's the 3 in the 2/3rds rule. This rule works for any sized oven from 8" to 16". To increase or decrease the temperature add or subtract 2 briquettes for a change of 25°. It is however, very important to know that coals should be placed around the circumference of the bottom and top of the Dutch oven so there are no hot spots and burning of food is kept to a minimum.
