Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

MY SPECIAL MEATLOAF RECIPE

Steps:

• Meatloaf: Combine meat loaf ingredients and place into meatloaf pan or regular loaf pan. I usually have a little left over because the pan I use is a small one. The excess I freeze for future use as stuffed pepper filling (there's usually enough for 2 peppers).
• Smooth out top.
• Sauce: Combine sauce ingredients and pour on top and sides of meatloaf.
• Bake at 350°F about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes or until done.

BILL BLASS'S MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Oil an 8-by-4-inch loaf pan. In a heavy skillet over medium heat, saute the celery and onion in the butter until soft, about 5 minutes. Scrape into a large mixing bowl and cool.
• When the onions are cool enough to handle, add the meats, parsley, sour cream, bread crumbs, thyme, marjoram and salt and pepper to the bowl. Whisk the egg with the Worcestershire sauce and add to the mixture. Using a wooden spoon or your hands, combine the mixture and mold into the shape of a loaf.
• Place the meatloaf in the prepared pan. Top with the chili sauce and bacon slices. Bake until firm and nicely browned, about 1 hour.

• Begin to fold the meat from one side to the other, rolling as you go. Pinch the ends to seal when the roll is complete. Turn loaf from foil into a greased 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan. Bake for 60 to 75 minutes.

CLASSIC MEATLOAF RECIPE BY TASTY
