Cooking MethodSlow Cooker
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup dried onion
- 1/4 cup dried parsley
- 2 Italian sausages
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 2 jumbo eggs
- 1/4 cup sweet & sour sauce barbecue sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon smoke seasoning powder, (mesquite) or liquid of your choice
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon rubbed sage
- 3/4 cup (plus more if needed) cornbread Stove Top stuffing mix
- salt if desired
Instructions
- Place the onion and parsley in small bowl and add a small amount of water to moisten; set aside.
- Remove sausage from casings, break into small pieces. Add beef and combine well. Combine the eggs, sweet & sour and soy sauce in a bowl, use a small whisk and blend well.
- Add the onion and parsley and combine well.
- Add the smoke powder, cumin, thyme and sage to the egg mixture, combine well. Add the stove top dressing to the meat and combine a while, pour the egg mixture over the meat mixture.
- Mix well and if needed, add more stove top or some potato flakes to the mixture to get a firm mixture.
- Place in what you usually use to bake your meatloves and get with it. I use a homemade draining insert in the slow cooker and let it cook about 4 hours on high, then on low for a couple more to get all the grease out of it.
