West Virginia is the first state to have a state sales tax, and as of 1997, has the lowest crime rate in the country. It also had the first iron furnace, and one of the first suspension bridges in the world. West Virginia was the first state to have outdoor advertising, the first electric railroad, and the only residence in the world built completely out of coal. West Virginia was also the first state to have an African American woman to become a member of a legislative body in the United States!
West Virginia Meatloaf:
For the meatloaf:
1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1 slice bread (broken or chopped finely)
1 egg
1 small Vidalia onions or 1 small type sweet onion - finely chopped
1 teaspoon table salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 tablespoons ketchup
1/2-2/3 cup milk
For the sauce:
4 tablespoons apple cider
2 -4 tablespoons dark brown sugar, packed firm
1/2 cup ketchup
Add the meat to a mixing bowl,
Add onions,
Bread,
Egg,
Ketchup,
Salt,
Pepper.
The next step would be to put mixture in a loaf pan. Here is what I use - it is a meatloaf pan.
Here it is shown separated,
It does a great job of allowing the grease to drain rather than building up on the bottom and sides.
Next, grab a small bowl, add in vinegar,
Brown sugar,
Ketchup.
Mix well.
Add to top and sides of the meatloaf.
Bake at 350°F about 1 hour or until done.
TIP: This dish can be prepared ahead of time. Cook with foil on for 30 minutes, remove, and cook for another hour or until done.
