Mokey's Mothers Meat Loaf (Roughly $15 to make, feeds 8ish)

Ingredients:
2 lbs. ground beef
1 bottle Heinz Chili Sauce (trust me)
1 8oz package of shredded cheddar cheese
1 sleeve Saltine crackers
2 large eggs
3 tbs. brown sugar
2 tbsp. onion power (or one medium onion, minced)
2 tbsp. garlic powder
1 tbsp. salt
1 tbsp. fresh ground pepper

Other items needed:
One pair latex gloves
One large bowl
One cereal size bowl
One large ziptop bag
One "meatloaf pan". More on this at the end.

Get cooking: Preheat the oven to 350.
First, add 1/2 of the bottle of chili sauce and the brown sugar to the small bowl. Mix well, and set aside.
Add half of the sleeve of cracker to the ziptop bag, and crush finely. Add to bowl, and crush the other halve. Add the them meat, rest of the chili sauce, egg and spices to the bowl, and mix well with your hands (latex gloves FTW!)
Once mixed well, turn out onto meatloaf pan and form by hand into a rectangular shape, with the top slightly indented. Now add the chili sauce mixture to the top, allowing it to bleed over the sides slightly. Cook @ 350 for 1 hours (internal temp needs to reach 160).

About the "meatloaf pan"
The reason this pan works so well is because the fat from the meatloaf will drain to the bottom, making for a very nice textured meatloaf. And it's cheap, and versatile.
