Form the body of the spider using about ⅔ of the meat mixture. Wet your hands and press the ground meat into an oval. Place it on the baking tray. Use the rest of the mixture to form the head of the spider, as seen in the picture.

- Roast the “spider” for 40 minutes.
- Add sausages: Remove from the oven and place the sausages around the spider, you don't have to place them into the right position now.8 long sausages
- Continue roasting the spider and the sausages for about 20 minutes, turning the sausages one time in between or until the sausages and the meatloaf are cooked through.
- Serve: Carefully lift the body of the spider and place it onto a large serving platter. Lift the head as well and place it on the platter in the right position. Arrange the sausages around the spider as its legs.
Notes
- Ground meat: You can use either finely ground or coarsely ground bratwurst or any other sausages you like. Make sure that the sausages are long enough so that they look like spider legs.
