    Which Mackenzie River are they talking about?

    I can find no references to The Mackenzie River Cookbook except at recipes.sparkpeople.com which seems to have scraped up half a
    million recipes from everywhere and then tries to drive traffic to a
    site called peopleonehealth.com which appears to sell health
    insurance plans.

    Yield: 1 Recipe

    HOT WATER CRUST PROPORTIONS:
    7 oz Water
    6 oz Lard
    1 lb Plain flour
    1/2 ts Salt
    1 Egg (optional)
    FILLING:
    1 Turkey
    1 Goose
    1 Fowl
    1 Partridge
    1 Pheasant
    1/2 oz Mace )
    1/2 oz Nutmegs ) ground
    1/4 oz Cloves ) together
    1/2 oz Black pepper)
    2 tb Salt
    1 Hare
    Woodcocks
    Grouse
    Wild fowl
    4 lb Butter
    Salt & Pepper

    " First make a good standing crust, let the Wall and Bottom be very
    thick; bone a Turkey, a Goose, a Fowl, a Partridge and a pigeon.
    Season them all very well, take mace, nutmegs, cloves and black
    pepper, all beat fine together, add the salt and then mix them
    together. Open the fowls all down the back and bone them; first the
    pigeon, then the partridge, cover them; then the fowl, then the
    goose, and then the turkey; which must be large; season them all
    well first, and lay them in the crust, so as it will look only like
    a whole turkey; then have a hare ready skinned and wiped with a clean
    cloth. Cut it to pieces; that is, jointed; season it, and lay it as
    close as you can on one side; on the other side, woodcocks, moor
    game, and what sort of wild fowl you can get. season them well, and
    lay them close; put at least four pounds of butter into the pye, then
    lay on your lid, which must be a very thick one, and let it be well
    baked. It must have a very hot oven, and will take at least four
    hours.

    This crust will take a bushel of flour... These pies are often sent
    to London in a box as presents; therefore the walls must be well
    built."

    I suspect that it is/was a promotional item of the Mackenzie River Pizza
    chain which is based in Montana. And has outposts as far east as Ohio.
    But I couldn't prove it if you pulled a gun on me.

    Title: Yorkshire Meatloaf
    Categories: Beef, Pork, Cheese, Breads, Herbs
    Yield: 4 servings

    250 g Beef mince
    250 g Pork mince
    100 g Bacon; fine chopped *
    100 g Grated cheddar
    2 lg (57 g) eggs; beaten
    100 g Dry breadcrumbs
    2 Onions; peeled, chopped
    2 ts Mixed herbs
    1/2 ts Ground nutmeg
    130 ml Beef or chicken stock

    * packaged up off-cuts or 'cooking bacon' are fine

    Set your oven @ 175ºC/350ºF.

    Grease a baking or roasting tin (it doesn't have to be a
    snug fit for your 'loaf, so don't worry about that).

    Finely chop onions, then fry until lightly browned.

    Mix meat with onions, breadcrumbs, herbs, nutmeg, half
    the cheddar, beaten eggs, salt and pepper to taste.

    Steadily mix in the stock, until the mixture looks
    fairly wet.

    Shape the mixture into a loaf, turn into the tin, cover
    with foil and bake for 30 minutes.

    Remove the foil, sprinkle with the remaining cheese,
    then bake for a further 15 minutes.

    Eat.
