The meatloaf has been canceled until tomorrow....I love you, tomorrow.....

I love meatloaf. Didn't vixmom or someone ask what our favorite recipes are? I grew up loving my mom's which was a basic Betty Crocker Cookbook one, and what I remember is that it was all beef. I don't think my family ever did the beef/lamp/pork (?) blend. But I'll have to get it out of my li'l recipe file to see what she did. I do know she added more onions than recommended. As for ordering it anywhere, I haven't done that in years, but I would tend to trust the better diners in the region.

My mom's recipe is pretty much ground meats combined with other assorted foodstuffs shaped into a loaf-like shape, then baked until done.  They've usually been pretty good.

Mom’s version of meatloaf when I was growing up was very budget conscious. It tasted more of meat-flavored breadcrumbs than of meat. Not that it mattered to me. Mine was slathered in ketchup.

[John G.]

My meatloaf for Mom was more like a dry martini. You hold the bottle of vermouth near your gin, never letting them touch. I waved a saltine packet over the meat.

[John G.]

Interview went well. Thank you for the vibes.

Time to feed some kitties.

Yes DR CHAS SMITH Medicare.gov is not too user friendly.

I logged onto the Social Security website to find out my new monthly payment and I, too, had to get a new password.

All of us who partake will be receiving an 8.7% (.087) increase in our benefit which is a nice sum that will pay my electric or gas bill in the coming months.

My mother always poured ketchup all over her meatloaf before she baked it, and I always loved it. I also like meatloaf with a nice beef gravy and mashed potatoes. I've never made one, but I'm ready to try.

Tuesday afternoon greetings!  Second ladies’ meeting of the month complete and now I have almost a week without any calendar commitments.  Maybe I’ll finally start getting ready for Christmas.

[Ginny]

In my all-beef meat loaf I use rolled oats instead of bread crumbs and put bacon sliced on top.  Then I add water to an almost-empty bottle of ketchup or chili sauce and pour half over the loaf before baking.  Baste with the rest of the liquid about halfway through.

DR Elmore, I think we’ve had meat loaf at least once when you’ve been here for dinner.

I'm up, I'm up - maybe seven hours of sleep, maybe a bit less.

Very rough night last night.

[bk]

VERY rough.

[bk]

It was rough.

[John G.]

How rough was it?

[Jrand74]

Non rough vibes for MR BK.

[ChasSmith]

DR Ginny, what time should we show up for the meatloaf dinner?

[Jrand74]

MR if you are feeling bad - SKIP THIS POST.






I use the Friday's Bacon & Chedder Chips crushed up in my meat loaf instead of bread crumbs or crackers and add minced onions and minced green peppers - but not much of either.  If I have it, I also add a cup of shredded cheese.

Now and then I use tomato paste - but the go to of course is Heinz Ketchup in the mix and then also spread on top before baking.

I also add some small golden potatoes to the pan to bake everything together.

I usually use the 93/7 ground chuck - a 2.25 lb. tray.  And it lasts for several days.......including the last day or so as SANDWICHES.

You may be right!

Nothing beats meatloaf sandwiches!
