Death Potatoes:

I like to make the potatoes ahead of time (either the day before or the morning before) and just put it in the fridge and then stick it in the oven an hour before serving!

Boil the potatoes (with the skins still on) until done. Don’t let them get too soft. Peel and dice the potatoes. Mix sour cream, cream of chicken soup, butter, corn and grated cheese into a casserole dish. Add the potatoes and mix well. Put melted butter into a ziploc bag and add the corn flakes. Mix in bag until corn flakes are all covered in butter and then top the potatoes. Bake at 375 degrees for an hour if you had made it ahead of time and usually about 30-45 minutes if not made ahead of time. Just until it’s all bubbly.

Meatloaf:

You can just use 2 lbs of hamburger if you don’t have the pork sausage. This will cook in your large crockpot!

In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs and add milk and onion. Mix well. Add hamburger and pork sausage. Then add enough crackers and bread so that the meatloaf mixture is easily formable and not runny. (I usually mix this with my hands so that it all gets mixed in very well). Fill the bottom of your LARGE Crockpot with baby carrots (1 layer). Sprinkle your Beef Gravy mix over the top of the carrots. Then place your meatloaf on top of the carrots – (use your hands to create a loaf of the mixture). Pour BBQ Sauce over the top of the meatloaf. Cook for 5-6 hours on high and 8-10 hours on low.
