spicy meatloaf...
1-1/2-2lbs venison burger or lean hamburger or elkburger 1 large onion chopped 1-1/2 cup italian bread crumbs or can substitute crackers 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese 2 tablespoons minced garlic 2 eggs 1/2 cup tomato juice 1/4 cup taco seasoning mix 1/8 cup hot barbecue sauce-..see customizing bbq sauce thread or just use hot sauces like smack your a$$ sally etc. 1/8 cup red pepper light sprinkling of cayenne pepper powder
mix well the above in large plastic or glass bowl -put into buttered baking pan approx. 5"x10" approx. 4" in depth
separate small dish 1/2 cup of ketchup with 1/8 cup hot bbq sauce-mix well as this for top layer(I like a thick layer).> apply this & spread on top to the well mixed meatloaf that is in the buttered pan.
preheat oven to 375 degrees
cover with foil & bake for 1hr 20min...*uncover(take foil off) last 25min.
next batch you can alter & make any adjustments to your liking if needed.

Here ya go speed, this is my Grandmother's recipe. She was from Naples, It.
MEATBALLS
3 lb. 80/20 Hamburg 2 -2.5 lb. Ground Pork 6 - 8 Lg. Cloves Garlic minced 1 ½ - 2 Cups chopped Italian Parsley ( 2 lg. Bunches) 2 to 2 1/2 Cups graded Peccorino Romano, or, Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese A few shakes of crushed Red Pepper flakes if you like them spicy 4 Lg. Eggs lightly beaten 1 Loaf day old Italian Bread .... remove crust and cut white part of bread into 1" cubes and soak w/ milk for 1 hr. or so, until soft, then squeeze out lquid.
In a large bowl add bread after liquid has been squeezed out, add eggs and incorporate w/ fingers. Add parsley, garlic, cheese and pepper to taste, mix thoroughly into a slurry . Add mixture to meat a little at a time and mix by hand. Make your Meatballs.
We pan fry the meatballs in about 1/2" of canola oil on all sides until a crust forms and well browned. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Put in sauce and cook at a low simmer for 2 - 3 hrs. stirring every 15 min. or so.
If using ground Venison you can use a 70 /30 mixture of ground Venison / Pork, any less pork and your Meatballs may be too dry.

Mangiare Bene!

Charlie, sadly my parents and grandparents are all long gone now. But no, no home grown hot peppers from Italy. I actually made that pot of (Gravy) as we call it that's in the pic. I don't recall exactly how many meatball's this amount makes, it really depends on how big you make them. We make them kinda big, about the size of a scoop of ice cream. Probably 30 or so that size in this recipe.
Yes, they freeze very well.

Thanks, ( does your mom use home grown hot peppers from italy?) Charlie. Charlie, I just made some more of these and this recipe made 45 meatballs using an ice cream scoop with a release bail on it to measure them. I also used 12 links of Italian Sausage, two 109 oz. cans of tomato sauce & one 28 oz. can of crushed tomato's. It makes ALOT! You may want to 1/2 the recipe to try it first. Merry Christmas! YB.
