BAKED MEATLOAF BURGERS

I love meatloaf, especially the top and end pieces that are coated with that sticky sweet glaze, dont you? As a matter of fact, picky-picky husband and I have been known to make leftover meatloaf sandwiches, using ONLY that outside saucy layer of meat.

With that in mind, I decided to try "baked meatloaf burgers" and they were a big hit; we ended up with the best part of the meatloaf in EVERY sandwich!!

1½ pounds lean ground beef (I use 90% lean)

1/2 cup chopped onion (chopped finely)

2 eggs lightly beaten

2/3 cup saltine crumbs (fine)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

Mix above ingredients (dont over mix) and shape into patties. Place on baking sheet that has been sprayed with cooking spray.

Brush liberally with glaze (really pile it on).

GLAZE

1/2 cup ketchup

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon ground DRY mustard powder
healthy pinch of black pepper

few drops of liquid smoke

Mix Glaze and brush over the patties (use all of the glaze).

Bake patties in a preheated 350° oven for 25-30 minutes or until they are cooked through (cooking time depends on how thick you make your patties).

This recipe also makes wonderful sliders on little dinner rolls. Dont try to FRY these burgers (with the sauce on them) because it will scorch and burn quickly; the sauce really transforms magically in the oven, so it is worth the effort.
