Meat Roll

Serves 20-25

Meat Mixture:

3 lb. Lean Ground Beef
1 lb. Ground Pork
1 lb. Ground lamb
1 Box Cracker Meal
2 Large Onions: Chopped
3 tsp. Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to Taste
4 Large Eggs

Filling Ingredients:

18 Large Eggs
1 1/2 Tbs. Parsley
1 Tbs. Garlic Powder
1/2 cup Cheddar Cheese; Grated

In a large mixing bowl combine all of the meat mixture ingredients and blend well. Spread the mixture on a large sheet of waxed paper and use a rolling pin to spread the meat out and evenly form a rectangle approximately 12 x 20-inchs and 1/2-inch thick.

To prepare filling, hard boil the eggs, cool, remove shells and mash in a medium mixing bowl. Add remaining ingredient and stir or mxi by hand. Spread filling on top of meat mixture, an inch from the edges. Using the wax paper as a guide, roll the meat and filling like a jelly roll as tight as possible. Place meat roll on an ungreased baking pan, making sure to set the seam side down. Bake in a 350-F degree oven for 1 1/2-hours, basting frequently with red sauce. Remove from oven and let the meat roll stand until cool enough to slice. Served with a side of pasta, salad and garlic toast.
