Default Foods that use a lot of ketchup

Long story short, I have two open bottles of ketchup. I won't even get into
that saga but there you have it. And I need the refrigerator space. And
yes, open ketchup does need to be refrigerated these days. At least this
kind does.

I also don't want to use the oven because there is no end in sight for this
heat wave. But I did find an oven recipe that sounded interesting.

I don't think any of us have ever eaten brisket but I see that Amazon Fresh
has it in grass fed so that would be an option for a cooler day. However, I
am not sure about the sauce. I have never actually made BBQ sauce because
none of us like it and I have a feeling that the sauce might in fact be BBQ
sauce.

An obvious choice would be meatloaf but I have some in the freezer still and
it also uses the oven.

Then there are Sloppy Joes. None of us really like those much but I do find
that making them from scratch is a bit better than Manwich and that ilk.

I did mention the BBQ sauce. Don't want to go there or cocktail sauce.

I thought that I made some sort of chicken some years ago that called for a
lot of ketchup but I have no idea what it was called.

And I have made those Crockpot meatballs with the ketchup and grape jelly.
My friend swore that they were always wolfed down at his company parties but
they were not wolfed down here.

I know I have made something with those little wienies in the Crockpot and
sometimes my husband will eat those. I can't remember what they had in them
though. I want to say mostly ketchup with a little mustard.

What am I missing here? There has got to be something obvious that I'm not
thinking of.

I know that ketchup can be used for cleaning various things but I'm really
not interested in that. Aside from doing it once and being slightly amazed,
I realize that there are other products that work way better than ketchup
does.

I also know that the ketchup bottle doesn't take up a lot of fridge space
but I just hate having two of the same thing open and I'd like to use one
up. Both are almost all the way full too! Grrr....

Thanks!
