I found this down-home recipe in a cookbook published by patrons and friends of the small independent school where I teach third grade, writes Tia Yeatts of Tappahannock, Pennsylvania. Ingredients:
2 cups water |
5 tablespoons brown sugar |
5 tablespoons white vinegar |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
2 tablespoons corn syrup |
2 tablespoons soy sauce |
1 teaspoon salt |
meat loaf: |
2 eggs |
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce |
1 cup dry bread crumbs |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
2 pounds ground beef |
1/2 pound ground pork |
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, combine the first seven ingredients; bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened; set aside. 2. In a large bowl, combine the first six meat loaf ingredients; add 2/3 cup of the reserved sauce. Crumble beef and pork over mixture and mix well. 3. Pat into two greased 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pans. Pour the remaining sauce over loaves. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 50 minutes or until no pink remains and a thermometer reads 160°. Yield: 2 loaves (5 servings each). |
