Mix all together:
10# raw ground beef
6 eggs
2 chopped onions, or to taste
6 cups oatmeal
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons salt
2 teaspoons pepper
2 teaspoons garlic powder
Shape into four loaves, about 2.5# each. Bake covered for 2 hours at 375 degrees. Uncover and top with sauce the last 10 minutes. (All sauce won’t be used to cover top.) These freeze great. Wrap in plastic wrap; freeze on cookie sheet; place in ziploc bag.
Sauce:
4 cups ketchup
4 tablespoons mustard
2/3 cup brown sugar
For meatballs – shape into balls or ovals, top with sauce. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. These also freeze great (freeze balls on wax paper-lined cookie sheets, then transfer balls to ziploc bags; or freeze in pans with sauce on them).
Sauce for Meatballs (for 10# beef):
3 Aldi bottles ketchup (32 oz each)
2 1/4 cups brown sugar
1 1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon garlic powder
3 tablespoons liquid smoke
To this recipe we also add 16 ounces mushrooms and fry patties for Salisbury steaks. Smothered with store package brown gravy mixed 1:1 with homemade cream soup, it’s another family favorite!
Yummmm!
Frosting for cut-outs -
(no other px of that project!)
Three cheers, the tile is running!!!!!
This is significant because it greatly reduces the work of hauling and thawing water for cows! Thank You Lord!
Taken yesterday - the lake after our all-day rain on Wednesday (about 2.5 inches) -
Today – same view with blue skies and sunshine!!!!!!!
Yesterday -
Today -
Amazing what a little sunshine and blue skies does to the picture! Although it’s still not a pretty lake – yet – - I’m pretty convinced that after all the mud settles, and the lake is filled so the brown sides aren’t reflected in the water, we’ll see a beautiful blue lake that reflects the sky, rather than the mud brown water we see now. Not that I know anything for sure; that’s just my theory. Every time it rains, the gullies and canyons made in the lake bed get deeper – meaning all that dirt is swirling in that brown water. Once the lake is full, no more mud will erode into it, and the mud there will eventually settle, allowing the lake to reflect the sky. If it never does turn blue – oh well! Not much we can do about it - so we’ll enjoy it no matter if it’s brown or blue!
Just because it was so pretty -
Oh happy day of sunshine!
