Mom's Hamburgers and Fries

I just made this plate of hamburger and french fries for my son. It was yummy enough to make this recipe collection.

I made the french fries from Russet potatoes. I always soak the fries in a bowl of ice cold water for about 1/2 hour or longer before frying them.

The hamburger is very simple to make. I make patties, then salt and pepper them (using sea salt), and a special seasoning from Badia that is called "Complete Seasoning", then grill them. Very simple. Top it with Velvetta Cheese, Fried Onions and Fried Bacon.

The fries are fried in the grease from the bacon and onions. I fry the bacon first, then add the fresh onion rings. Once done, I add some vegetable oil to my skillet and fry the french fries. They have a wonderful taste, but as you can tell, this dish is full of calories, so my family does not get this dish too often.

I usually make up all the patties (lots of them), then partially cook on the grill what we will be eating the next day. Popping the partially grilled hamburger patty in the microwave finishes the cooking process and then just add the onions and bacon and cheese. Lunch today was ready in 20 minutes.

Meatloaf

The smell of this meatloaf cooking will drive everyone crazy wondering when dinner will be ready.

Ingredients

4 pounds Ground Hamburger
1 large minced Onion
1 clove minced Garlic
1/4 cup minced Ancho Peppers
1 cup Ketchup
1/2 cup Smoky Barbecue Sauce
1/4 cup Honey
2 pkgs. crushed Saltine Crackers
4 eggs
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Ketchup

Mix all ingredients in a large bowl. Pat down in a 13x9 baking dish. Squeeze ketchup over the top of the meatloaf, (be creative if you like). Bake at 350 degrees for 1 & 1/2 hours or until meatloaf is done. Remove from oven. Cut meatloaf slices and put on another plate. (This is to stop the meatloaf from soaking up the grease that is in the pan). Great leftovers for sandwiches.
