Steps:
- For the meatloaf: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the oil and onions, season with some salt and saute until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and saute for 1 to 2 minutes without letting the garlic brown. Remove from the heat and let cool.
- In a large bowl, add the crackers, milk, mustard, Worcestershire, hot sauce and eggs. Whisk together, and then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the meat, parsley and cooled onions. Mix with your hands until evenly combined. Bake a tester meatloaf patty to taste and test the seasoning, adjusting as necessary. Using your hands, gently form the meatloaf into a loaf about 9-by-5-inches. Place on a baking sheet.
- For the glaze: In a small bowl, combine the ketchup, brown sugar and apple cider vinegar. Slather half of the glaze over the meatloaf. Make sure not to touch the meatloaf with the spoon and then put that spoon back into the glaze; don't cross contaminate, people! Bake until the meat registers 160 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 1 hour. Let rest for 20 minutes before slicing for sandwiches.
- For the sandwich build: Place a slice of cheese on the bottom griddled bun, then a slice of meatloaf, spoon some extra glaze on the loaf, pop on a few pickles and top with crispy onions. Repeat to make 3 more sandwiches.

MEATLOAF THAT DOESN'T CRUMBLE
I have tried and tried meatloaf recipes they all fall apart before you get them out of the pan. This meatloaf is very good and sticks together to be served. Leftover meatloaf makes wonderful sandwiches with mayonnaise.

THE REVISITATION OF THE MEATLOAF (HOT SUB SANDWICH)
I developed this recipe to use some leftover meatloaf because my son does not appreciate the cold meatloaf sandwich with all the fixings that the rest of the family enjoys. There always has to be one person who doesn't conform; it is a little known, unwritten rule. But as long as every family has one, I don't feel bad. This one's for you Adam, love you! By the way, he thought this sandwich was great! (Amounts are estimated, just wing it as you go and use what you have. Zaar won't accept leftover meatloaf so had to call it meatloaf mixture.)

Tips:
- Choose the right bread: A sturdy bread, such as rye or sourdough, will hold up better to the cold meatloaf and other fillings. If you're using a softer bread, like white bread, toast it lightly to give it a bit more structure.
- Use a variety of toppings: Don't be afraid to get creative with your toppings. Some popular options include cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and mustard. You can also add a fried egg or avocado for a more decadent sandwich.
- Make sure the meatloaf is cold: This may seem obvious, but it's important to make sure the meatloaf is cold before you assemble the sandwich. This will help prevent the bread from getting soggy.
- Pack the sandwich tightly: Once you've assembled the sandwich, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. This will help keep the sandwich together and prevent the fillings from falling out.
- Chill the sandwich before serving: If you're making the sandwich ahead of time, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and make the sandwich even more delicious.
Conclusion:
The cold meatloaf sandwich is a classic for a reason. It's easy to make, delicious, and portable, making it the perfect lunch or dinner option. With a variety of toppings to choose from, there's a cold meatloaf sandwich for everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give the cold meatloaf sandwich a try.
