1/4 cup ketchup

Recipe from Iris Teff, of which was her Mom Mollie Coley Bower's recipe.

Above recipe baked on 05-13-2024 and it was "off the chain good", and my bride aka Joyce said it taste just like her Mothers.

I have many memories of Aunt Mollie Bowers as a young boy teaching and helping me with my school homework when she was visiting her Mom, Della Coley.  Aunt Mollie made an awesome pound cake and when visiting her, she would always send something she had made, either pound cake or home made jelly, pickled peaches, etc.

NOTE:  Couldn't locate our loaf pan and using a 13 x 9 oven proof baking dish.  I used 1 lb. of 97/3 beef mixed with about 1/2 lb. of 73/27 ground beef.

OPTIONAL MEATLOAF SAUCE TOPPING

1/2 cup ketchup
2 tbs. brown sugar
1 tsp. white vinegar
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black peppercorns (Tellicherry)

Mix all ingredients in a small bowl and spread on top of meatloaf prior to baking.  Aunt Mollie's recipe did not have a topping.
