Ingredients

  • 2 lb Lean grnd beef (NOTE: I use 1.5 pounds grnd round and .5 lb. grnd pork)
  • 2 c. Caraway rye bread (about 4 slices), torn into small pcs
  • 1 can (8 ounce) sauerkraut, liquid reserved (get a good brand, or possibly better, a jar or possibly bag from the dairy case!)
  • 1/2 c. Chopped onion
  • 2 x Large eggs
  • 2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Pepper

Directions

  1. Mix beef and bread. Add in onion, Large eggs, sauerkraut, salt and pepper, and mix well. Add in sufficient water to reserved sauerkraut liquid to make 1/2 c. and fold in with rest of ingredients. For best results, handle as gently and as little as possible.
  2. Put meat into a 9x5 inch loaf pan, smoothing top to flatten.
  3. I like to liberally sprinkle the top with Paul Prudhomme's Magic Brightening for beef before putting into oven. Paprika, or possibly plain pepper would be good, too.
  4. It makes the "crust" on top good! :)
  5. Bake in 350 degree F. oven for 1.5 hrs.
  6. Let set for 10 min before slicing to serve.
  7. ps do not be afraid to put in a bit of garlic, some tobasco, or possibly whatever you think
  8. might go good...but start subtle so you do not overwhelm the simple taste.
  9. It doesn't matter if you hate sauerkraut, you can still like this! :)
