• To serve, thaw loaves and bake in 350°F oven for 30 minutes or until heated through.
• For meatballs: Shape into meatballs, using cookie scoop if available.
• Place on broiler pan so fat can drain while cooking.
• Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes.
• Divide into meal size portions.

• Then freeze meal size portions in bags.
• Add any of your favourite seasonings, herbs etc., to your taste. (We like Italian seasoning and I usually add some cayenne pepper).

KOBE BEEF MEATLOAF AND MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Add the onions, garlic, herbs and salt and pepper to a small saucepan over medium heat and cook until the mixture is soft and aromatic.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl add the eggs, mustard, milk and tomato paste. Stir in the bread crumbs mix well.
• Add the sauteed aromatics, and the beef and combine well. Form the mixture into 9-ounce football shapes and arrange on a parchment lined sheet pan. Wrap each meat loaf with strip of applewood bacon and liberally coat each loaf with ketchup. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes... do not let burn! They are ready when the internal temperature registers 140 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Transfer to serving plates or platters and serve.
• To make meatballs, omit the bacon and use a 2 ounce scoop to form the meatballs. Bake in the same manner as the meatloaf.
