directions

5. Pack the mixture into a 9-inch loaf pan, brush the top with the remaining bbq sauce and bake covered for 1 hour. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.

6. Potatoes:

Comfort food at it's best! With Bippie's permission, I only made the meatloaf, so am only reviewing the meatloaf at this time. This is a really tasty version. I have been using half turkey-half beef for awhile, so really liked that part. I had never used BB Q sauce in meatloaf, but will from now on. So much tastier than plain tomato sauce. Made for Spring 2008 PAC.
