Yet another of dad's recipes. This is a slightly different meatloaf, than what most people are familiar with. Excellent served with rice, potatoes or broad pasta & fresh peas.
Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef or 1 lb ground veal
1/2 lb ground pork
1 onion, medium, chopped
1/2 cup soft breadcrumbs
1/2 cup pickle juice
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup dill pickles, chopped
1/2 cup chili sauce or 1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Lightly mix meats with onions, bread crumbs, pickles, egg, salt and pepper until well blended.
3. Shape into a loaf and place in shallow pan.
4. Combine pickle juice, chili sauce or ketchup, water, sugar and Worcestershire sauce.
5. Pour over meatloaf and place in 350°F oven basting twice with sauce in pan for 40 minutes.
6. Continue baking without basting for additional 30 - 35 minutes, until meatloaf is really glazed.
7. Garnish with a pickle fan. Dad always served this with Brussels sprouts and tiny whole carrots.
