Yet another of dad's recipes. This is a slightly different meatloaf, than what most people are familiar with. Excellent served with rice, potatoes or broad pasta & fresh peas.

ERYK'S DILL PICKLE MEATLOAF
When my son Eryk was a little boy, he used to ask me to make this at least once a week. He is now 22 and he still says it's his favorite meat loaf. I usually serve with baked potatoes and a green salad.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality ground beef. The better the quality of the beef, the better the meatloaf will taste.
- Use fresh dill pickles. Fresh dill pickles will give the meatloaf the best flavor.
- Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture. Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough.
- Bake the meatloaf in a loaf pan that is no more than 9x5 inches. A larger pan will make the meatloaf too thin.
- Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the meatloaf hold its shape.
