Well, Max, since we seem to be on a roll with the quantity recipes, here is a keeper. This one has been making the church supper circuit for some time, and I guess that you could triple, quadruple, or quintuple it to serve a whole jail full of Paris Hiltons, although Paris doesn’t look like the Meat Loaf type to me.
Monster Meat Loaf:
2 onions
5 ribs of celery
8 pounds of ground beef
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 large can (46 oz) tomato juice
4 cups of cracker crumbs or dry bread crumbs
2 envelopes of dried onion soup mix
6 eggs
Beat the eggs in a huge mixing bowl. Chop the onions and celery in a food processor. Mix the onions, celery, ground beef, pepper, soup mix, crumbs, Worcestershire, and tomato juice in with the eggs. Mix well with your hands, if you are not lucky enough to have a KitchenAid 5-Plus Professional Stand Mixer. If too moist, add a few more crumbs.
Divide into four parts. Shape each part into a loaf and place in a heavy, greased 3-qt. baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes.
Mix 1 cup ketchup, 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup prepared mustard, and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon. After the loaves have cooked for 30 minutes begin basting them with the ketchup sauce. A bbq basting brush is great for this. Bake for an additional 30 minutes and baste several more times.
This makes about 36 helpings of meat loaf.
