• Cover the ball with another square of patty paper.
• Then lower the lid of the hamburger press and push down until it forms a nice round Meatloaf Burger patty.
• Place the Meatloaf Burger patties side by side on a large baking sheet. Keep the patty paper between the Meatloaf Burgers to separate them.

Once each Meatloaf Burger is frozen solid, you can transfer them from the cookie sheet into a large resealable freezer bag. Frozen Meatloaf Burgers do not need to be thawed before grilling.
