Mom's Best Meatloaf (Serves two with leftovers for a sandwich)

2 teaspoons bacon fat
2 Tablespoons chopped onion
1 heaping teaspoon minced jarred garlic (or one clove roasted if you're adventuresome)
3/4 tsp salt
3/4 tsp pepper
a pinch of crushed red pepper
3/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 pound ground beef (don't get the cheap burger for this, you'll lose a lot of it to fat)
1 and 1/2 large slices of bread toasted and crumbled (or about 1/3 cup crumbs)
5 buttery crackers (like Ritz or Waverly Wafers) crushed
1 small egg
1/4 cup tomato sauce
1 Tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 Tablespoons maple syrup
1 Tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon mayonnaise or sour cream

Saute onion and garlic in bacon fat (or butter) until lightly golden. Mix everything together, just until mixed, do not overwork. Top with about 1/3 cup barbecue sauce. Put into bread pan (it should be sized so that there is an inch or two at each end of the pan open, otherwise it will be too thin).

Bake at 350 F for 35-40 minutes. (meat thermometer at 160 F.)

If you double the recipe to serve 4, add about an extra 15 minutes to the cook time.
