Meat Loaf

• 1lb Ground Beef
• ¼lb Hot Italian Sausage
• 2 Tablespoons Hot Italian Sausage Grease

There truly is nothing here... nothing at all. A pound of Hot Italian Sausage was cooked. I was asked if I wanted the drained Grease. Of course, I did. "No. Well, maybe. OK. Put it aside and let's see." And this is the dish I decided to make with it.

• Take raw Hamburger and press (as lightly as possible) into a Glass Baking Dish.
• Crumble Cooked Italian Sausage over top.
• Press down lightly.
• Pour flavoured Grease over top.
• Cook for 30min at 350°.
• + some indeterminate time at 200°
  • ...waiting...
  • ...waiting...
  • ...done.

As I write, I am putting this together for heating later. And as I lick the spoon I used to ladle the Grease, it is clear this dish will be eaten with Sour Cream in order to cut the heat.

In passing (then), let me wonder how many of my posted dishes have been served with Sour Cream. It may well be my favourite ingredient... or if not ingredient, condiment.

Also, this will be served with a side of Broccoli, which I believe the excess Grease (now a mixture of Beef & Pork Grease seasoned with heat) will flavour quite nicely.



Oh, so hot... so ridiculously incredibly unbelievably hot.

And yet, with a bit of Sour Cream, this was delicious and flavoured (along with more Sour Cream) quite the pile of Broccoli and Peas.
