Meatloaf

I am more of a geek than a cook. I am the founder and creator of Copy Me That and I hope that you like it here! Feel free to drop me a line at hello@copymethat.com

½ lb. ground beef (7 to 10% fat)

¾ lb. ground pork

⅓ cup very finely diced onions

1 pkg. gelatin

1 egg

3 Tbs. flour

¼ cup water

2 cloves garlic, finely chopped (Or 2 tsp. garlic from a jar)

1 tsp salt

1 tsp. pepper

1 tsp. paprika

⅛ tsp. cumin

note: I'm not a fan of Worcestershire sauce so I don't use that.

note: Also could try celery and chopped carrots. Make fine in blender with the onions. Maybe cook first.

note: Gelatin is to make up for using beef instead of veal. Has more flavor, but still sticks together. I haven't tried without gelatin so don't know how much of a difference it makes.

subheading: Topping:

Ketchup glaze (I have not made this yet)

Brown Gravy (Instead of glaze)

Mix together all the ingredients. I use my hands. Don't overmix.

Add it to a meatloaf pan.

Let sit in fridge at least ½ hour. Can even make the day before and let sit. (Does sitting matter? I do it because it's like frikadeller and I do it there....)

Bake at 375° for 40 minutes.

Make the gravy while it's in the oven.

If using glaze, may have to broil it.

Freezing: I have frozen the loaf raw and put it directly into the hot oven. Needs about an hour.
