The Perfect Winter Meal

With dreary winter days ahead, it's always comforting to have a hearty winter meal for dinner.  This could mean different things for different people but one of the staples for us here at the farm is the ever so glamourous meatloaf.    Obviously, with the fresh ground Lowfields beef, I feel our meatloaf is on a higher level than your average meatloaf.  The trick is to keep it simple so the beef doesn't get overshadowed.   One of the best things about making meatloaf for dinner is the leftover sandwiches the next day! 

Lowfields Meatloaf
2 lbs ground beef
2 small onions, chopped
3-5 cloves garlic, minced
3 eggs
1 cup breadcrumbs (fresh or store bought)
5-7 dashes of Pickapeppa sauce (or worcestershire sauce)

Mix everything together and put into a baking dish or on a cookie sheet.  Form into a loaf and cook at 375 for at least 45 min to an hour.   Let cool a bit before slicing and then serve with your favorite comfy side - in my case, it was roasted potatoes and a lovely salad! 


Ready to go into the oven! 

It may look messy, but only the most delicious things do! 

The perfect winter meal!
