SAMMY'S BEEF AND SAUSAGE MEATLOAF
I got the idea of using sausage in this from my hubby, and I built it from there. This makes an excelent, juicy, and very tasty meat loaf. Note: I mince my onions because I like the flavor, I just don't want to know they are there, but obviously you can chop them to your liking.

HOMESTYLE SAUSAGE/GROUND BEEF MEATLOAF
This is the meatloaf my mom made and it was always one of her most requested recipes. I'm not sure if it's one of her recipes or not, since she was always clipping recipes from magazines and newpapers. It's still a big hit with family and friends and remains one of my most requested recipes. My hubby is a hunter, so I do make it with ground vension and vension sausage and it's wonderful. You can also make meatballs with the meat mixture and brown them in a skillet, pop them in a crockpot with spaghetti sauce and it's great served over pasta. The meatballs also make a wonderful appetizer served with your favorite sweet & sour or BBQ sauce. Any leftover meatloaf or meatballs make a mean sandwich the next day as well. I usually make two recipes and bake both loaves on a large baking sheet so I have enough for sandwiches the next day, LOL.
