In honor of tonight's supper (meatloaf), I'm going to ask for y'all to offer up items you put in a meatloaf that you think others might not.
We use bacon, for example, and not everyone does that. We also say "no thanks" to the use of ketchup, and go with tomato sauce instead.

I make my meatloaf in the crockpot. That way the oven isn't heating up the place. Oh, and I use Ritz crackers.

Instead of bacon, try topping it with thick slices of pepperoni.
Interesting notion...
The bacon is finely chopped and mixed in with everything else, so topping with pepperoni would basically be adding a topping.
The Ritz crackers is interesting. I've also known people to use saltines, too. I'll put those on the "to try" list, along with the pepperoni topping.

Thanks....
The croutons angle is interesting.

Whenever I look to cook something I haven't tried (or just to verify methods) I turn to Good Eats. I like the way he gets into the why of things, not just the what.
First rib roast I ever did - followed Alton's steps. 5 bone roast (just over 10 pounds) - barely enough left over to make the dog happy.
I'm at a 2 or 3 here.
I always loved eating cinnamon/sugar toast as a kid. These sound pretty good based on that!!
While s’mores have held the title of the ultimate campfire snack for years, we think this summer, it’s time to introduce a new favorite to the flames.
Say hello to Brown Bears, the irresistibly buttery, cinnamon-swirled treats that put a whole new twist (pun intended) on campfire cooking. They’re as fun to make as they are to eat, and best of all, they only require four ingredients.
In the great outdoors, the open flame becomes your oven and a stick becomes your serving vessel. Your crew will love crafting their cinnamon-sugar swirls and slowly roasting them to fluffy, golden-brown perfection.
We love that these treats are easy to make for all ages, inexpensive, and guaranteed to entertain. Whether you make them for a lazy breakfast or a dessert under the stars, these cinnamon sticks will please every person by the fire.

Pop open a can of refrigerated biscuit dough and roll each piece of dough into a rope about 4 or 5 inches long. Then, wrap the dough around a clean, sturdy stick or a long skewer (to avoid burning your hand).
AllRecipes / Abbey Littlejohn
Hold the dough-wrapped sticks over the campfire, slowly turning to ensure even cooking. Roast the dough until it’s golden brown and cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Once the biscuits are perfectly roasted, carefully dip them into the melted butter and then roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated. Then you can enjoy your warm, buttery, cinnamon-sugar-coated biscuits straight from the stick.
To take these treats to the next level, you can experiment with wrapping chocolate or chocolate-peanut butter pieces inside the biscuit dough layers. Or, you can use the biscuit-on-a-stick concept to create something entirely new, like Allrecipes community member Wendi Hartl. They write, “Instead of making them for breakfast, we made them with dinner and instead of putting the butter/cinnamon/sugar, we put butter and garlic! We called them garlic bears!”
If you want to make these homestyle treats indoors, just swap the oven for a campfire. Simply bake them at the temperature and time suggested on the biscuit can, flipping them halfway through.
So next time you gather around the fire, skip the graham crackers and chocolate and try these unexpected treats instead—you might just discover your new favorite summer tradition.

What Are Brown Bears?

How to Make Brown Bears
Start by combining cinnamon and sugar in a bowl and preparing a bowl of melted butter. To save time and space in your camping supplies, bring the cinnamon sugar pre-mixed or use store-bought cinnamon sugar.Pop open a can of refrigerated biscuit dough and roll each piece of dough into a rope about 4 or 5 inches long. Then, wrap the dough around a clean, sturdy stick or a long skewer (to avoid burning your hand).

From Our Allstars
Allrecipes Allstar Bri Evans says, "It's like monkey bread or a cinnamon roll to-go!" She adds, "They're so fun to make by the campfire! I suggest coating them in the cinnamon sugar before roasting them and then adding butter and cinnamon after. We carry a gallon bag of the cinnamon-sugar mixture so we can assemble them faster."To take these treats to the next level, you can experiment with wrapping chocolate or chocolate-peanut butter pieces inside the biscuit dough layers.

In a few short days, hot dogs will be flying off grills as Americans across the country celebrate the Fourth of July. The hot dog has long been a backyard BBQ favorite, but you'd be surprised at the number of different types there are and in what states they reign supreme.
Just in time for the holiday, Google Trends has created an intriguing map of the most popular hot dog types using Americans' unique searches. And if you thought mustard vs. ketchup was the biggest frankfurter-fueled debate, you've got another thing coming.
The map is quite a shocker. Although standard options like beef hot dogs and turkey hot dogs are popular in a number of states, there are several hot dog faves we would have never expected.
Google Trends
Among the unexpected favorites is the Korean hot dog, a popular street food that's similar to a corn dog. The sweet and savory hot dog is at the top of the list in Texas, Louisiana, Nevada, Kansas, and a handful of other states.
It's likely no surprise that the Coney Island hot dog was the most searched hot dog in Pennsylvania and Massachusetts, but we're a bit taken aback that Floridians are also big fans of this hot dog type.
New York's top dog? The white hot dog, which is popular in Rochester, among other parts of Western New York.
Despite hailing from the The Windy City, the Chicago style hot dog is popular across the country. Loaded with an assortment of toppings like mustard, tomato slices, and pickle spears, this style is also favored in Oregon, Montana, Wisconsin, Indiana, and Illinois.
And with reindeer hot dogs serving as the most searched hot dog type in Alaska, we now know what state we'll be passing on for a Fourth of July vacation. Sorry, folks.
