This meatloaf is large and 3 lbs. of ground beef takes time to mix and incorporate. Make sure to allow enough time to bake this loaf through fully. A fairly blackened top makes the loaf more interesting and true to the intentions of the Name, The style is meant to duplicate a 50's diner and invoke humor and perhaps a 'campy' venue.
