Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and grease the foil.
- Mix ground beef, onion, crackers, milk, Cheddar cheese, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, and seasoned salt together in a bowl. Transfer beef mixture to the prepared baking sheet and form into a skull-shape, leaving holes for "eye sockets" and a "mouth". Place hard boiled egg halves into the "eye sockets", shaping the beef mixture around them to hold in place.
- Mix ketchup, brown sugar, and barbeque sauce together in a bowl until sauce is smooth. Spread 1/2 of the sauce onto the entire beef mixture, including the "eyes" and "mouth".
- Bake in preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 50 to 60. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
- Arrange the garlic pieces in the mouth for the "teeth". Brush the remaining sauce over the meatloaf or serve on the side.

HALLOWEEN HALFLING MEATLOAF
This is a great tasting and scary meatloaf. Our guests got a big kick out of it. I prefer to bake my meatloaf on a slotted broiler pan to let the grease drip off. You can use spicy sausage but I prefer a mild sausage.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Mix together the ground beef, sausage, onion, saltine cracker crumbs, beaten eggs, and cajun seasoning in a bowl until well combined. In a large baking dish, form the meat loaf mixture into a Halfling shape, with a large head, 2 stubby legs, and 2 upraised arms.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the meatloaf is no longer pink inside and just starting to turn brown, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (70 degrees C).
- To decorate the meatloaf's head, pick out about 14 corn kernels, and arrange them into teeth. Place 1 small green pepper slice on each side of the creature's head for ears; place two pickle slices on the face for eyes, then place 2 black olive halves, cut sides down, in the pickle slices to finish the eyes. One more olive half forms the nose. Surround the monster with a background of ketchup "blood," and bake until browned, about 10 more minutes.
- Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before serving. Just before serving, stick a paring knife in the meatloaf's body, and decorate it with a little ketchup blood.

- In a large bowl, combine the beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, mustard powder, cayenne, minced onion, eggs, bread crumbs, milk, parsley, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well until evenly combined.
- Split the meat mixture in half and place on the baking sheet. Shape each half into a "foot."

- Brush around the ankles with ketchup to look like "blood."
- Bake for 1 hour, until the meat is cooked through.
- Serve warm.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Mise en Place: As with any cooking, having all your ingredients prepped and measured before you start will make the process much smoother.
- Choose High-Quality Ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your meatloaf will taste. Look for fresh, locally sourced ingredients whenever possible.
- Don't Overmix: Overmixing the meatloaf mixture can make it tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Cook Meatloaf to Internal Temperature: The best way to ensure that your meatloaf is cooked through is to use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C) before removing the meatloaf from the oven.
- Let Meatloaf Rest: After cooking, let the meatloaf rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more flavorful and moist meatloaf.
Conclusion:
Halloween Halfling Meatloaf is a fun and festive dish that is perfect for any Halloween party. By following the tips above, you can create a delicious and memorable meal that your guests will love. So put on your chef's hat, gather your ingredients, and get ready to make some Halloween magic in the kitchen!
