HUBBY'S SPECIALTY - MEATLOAF

My husband makes the best meatloaf, although I may be a little biased.  Before I met my Hubby, I was never a fan of Meatloaf at all.  Well he converted me and now it is a much asked for thing even by the kids.  We alwways make sure to make a double batch so that we have enough for weekend lunches.  The kids all love a warm meatloaf and sauce sandwich on the weekend.  If we don't have the meatloaf on the Friday night, we just wrap it in alfoil and freeze it and then just bring it out and reheat on the weekend as required.

The following recipe will make two large meatloaves.  We find one will easily feed 6-8 of us.  That allows two generous slices each.  And before anyone asks lol, no I didn't just plonk the meatloaf onto the kitchen bench, it is on a clear glass cutting board which is just a bit difficult to see in this piccie lol.



 MEATLOAF

2kg Beef Mince
1kg Sausage Mince
2 onions chopped
1t Oregano
1T Garlic Powder
Sprinkle of Bush Spices
Sprinkle of BBQ Sprinkle
1T Worcestershire Sauce
½ C BBQ Sauce
½ C American Mustard
1C Tomato Sauce
1 egg
½ C Breadcrumbs

Put all items into a mixing bowl and using your hands, mix in well.  The mixtures shouldn’t be too wet, but should hold form.  Form into 2 large logs and place into two baking trays which have been sprayed with oil.  Drizzle with more Mustard, BBQ sauce and Tomato Sauce.
Bake in moderate oven for approximately 1 hour.
