Nana's Twin Meat Loaves

Funny how you can make the same recipe your mother did and it looks totally different! This is one of those for me.

3# ground beef
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 TBSP finely chopped celery
2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp sage
1/4 tsp dry mustard
1/4 tsp. poultry seasoning
4 slices soft bread torn into small pieces
1 cup warm milk
2 beaten eggs
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1/2 cup boiling water
1 TBSP W-shire sauce

Mix meat , onion, celery, and seasonings. Cube bread, soak in milk; add eggs and
W-shire sauce – beat with mixer.

Combine all and form into 2 loaves. Roll in crumbs and place on a greased shallow baking dish. Pour water around loaves. Bake at 350 degrees for 60 -90 minutes. Baste with pan juices every 15 minutes.
