1 pound (0.45 kg) ground pork , or ground lamb
1 (1) Red Onion. chopped, rough chopped
6 cloves (6 cloves) Garlic

Directions:
Directions:
Place onions, garlic into a large food processor and process until finely chopped but not liquefied.

Add meat and all the seasonings and grind for another 3-5 minutes.

Do not skip this step. If you do, it will be like ground beef with some weird seasonings in it. Grind it until it's a big, huge, sticky mess that you wonder how you will ever clean up.

Use your stand mixer with the paddle.

Put into a foil pan, and smooth out the top, and bake at 350 for 60 mins, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 175-180

Take it out of the oven and drain all the fat.

Cover it with foil and then place something heavy on it to compress it.

I put 3 cans large cans on top of the skillet to compress it.

Let it rest for 30 mins and then slice into thin slices.
