AMAZING VENISON MEATLOAF
This is my own original recipe (I'm a hunter's wife) and an all-time family favorite! A super moist and flavorful meatloaf with a 'kick' using venison and pork sausage. It would also probably be good as a leftover, but none of it has ever made it to the fridge so I don't know. This is exceptional when the meatloaf is formed into patties and grilled outside instead of baked in the oven.

Steps:

Add egg mixture to meat in a large bowl, along with crackers, oatmeal or bread crumbs, parsley and cook onions and garlic; mix with a fork until evenly blended and meat mixture does not stick to bowl.

- Cover a wire rack with foil; prick foil in several places with a fork. Place a rack on a shallow roasting pan lined with foil for easy cleanup.
- Set formed loaf on rack. Brush loaf with all of glaze, then arrange bacon slices, crosswise, over loaf, overlapping them slightly and tucking them under to prevent curling.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Stretch out the bacon with the back of a knife, then trim off and finely chop any stray bits. Line a 900g loaf tin with the bacon, leaving an overhang, and set aside. Tip the rest of the ingredients into a bowl and scrunch well with your hands.
- Pack the mix into the tin, pat down well and wrap over the bacon. Put the tin on a tray and bake in the middle of the oven for 1 hr 15 mins or until firm and cooked through. Leave to rest for at least 15 mins, then serve sliced - or leave to cool completely and serve sliced cold for a buffet with salad, or stuffed into a roll. Either way, Cumberland sauce is a must (see tip, below).

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large bowl mix ground beef, eggs, diced onions, ketchup, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mixing with your hands is best. Mix it real well.
- Crush the crackers. I always crush the crackers while still in their sleeve.
- Pour crushed crackers into beef. Mix the crackers into the beef mixture well.
- Form into a loaf shape and set to the side.
- Take the bacon and divide it into even amount.
- Take 1 half of the bacon and lay side by side long ways.
- Fold every other bacon strip in half.
- Lay 1 of the other half of the reserved bacon strips across.
- Unfold the half folded bacon strip.
- Fold the other every other bacon strips that were not folded in the previous step.
- Lay a slice of bacon across and then unfold.
- Repeat until you run out of room.
- Start on the other half of the bacon strip until you have made a weave.
- Pace the loaf shaped beef mixture into the center on your bacon weave.
- Wap the weave around the beef loaf shaped mixture.
- Flip the bacon wrapped meat loaf upside down,making the ends of the bacon tuck under the loaf.
- Place the loaf in the center of the oven on a cookie sheet.
- It takes about an hour to cook.
- To make sure it is cooked all the way through, I sometimes use a meat thermometer but that isn't really needed. Sometimes I leave it in for 15 more minutes if I am worried it isn't cooked all the way.
