Sunday was basically a repeat of Saturday. Only this time it was John Wayne movies (Commancheros, True Grit and El Dorado). I took another nap in the late afternoon.
Then I used my food processor to grind up a pound of the pork loin (the rest went back into the freezer). I mixed the ground pork with the hamburger and made a meatloaf (no recipe - just winging it).
I added the usual: diced onions and celery, crush saltines, thyme and garlic and an egg to bind it. I put it in the oven with two big Idaho baking potatoes. Then I made a glaze for it from ketchup, light brown sugar and some vinegar (a little too much vinegar, truth be told).
When it was done, I glazed it and let it sit under the broiler for 10 minutes. Then I ate my Sunday dinner. It wsn't until after I was done eating some meatloaf and one big potato (topped with just butter and sour cream - I didn't have any green onions) that I remembered I was going to steam some sweet corn to go with it. But I was too full by then to care.
I watched my normal Sunday night shows and went to bed at 11:30 PM. It was a nice, relaxing weekend.
So...how was the meatloaf?
ReplyDeleteIt was pretty tasty for just off the cuff. I would have liked mushrooms in it and the glaze was off. As I said, I put it a bit too much vinegar.
