Crazy Good Meatloaf Finally Recipes

REALLY GREAT MEATLOAF!

Steps:

• Set oven to 350°F.
• Prepare a 9 x 5-inch baking pan and a baking sheet covered with foil to place underneath to catch any drippings.
• Using clean hands mix together all meatloaf ingredients except the 1/2 to 3/4 cup ketchup and the brown sugar, until well combined in a large bowl (adding in a little more breadcrumbs if needed).
• Pack the mixture into prepared pan.
• Place the pan on a foil-lined baking sheet to catch any spills.
• Bake for about 1 hour.
• Mix together ketchup with enough brown sugar to taste (start with 2 tablespoons adding in as much brown sugar as you desire to reach desired sweetness).
• After the 1 hour of baking, remove the meat loaf (at this point you can carefully drain off some of the fat if desired) and spread the ketchup/brown sugar mixture over the top.
• Place back in the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the meat loaf is pulling away from the sides of the pan.
• OPTIONAL for the stuffing mixture; melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; add in mushrooms, onion and thyme, cook stirring until the mushrooms brown and loose their moisture.
• Add in the soft breadcrumbs and cook until lightly browned.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Spread evenly onto the bottom layer of beef mixture, then press down slightly.
• Top with layer of beef mixture and bake as stated.

CRAZY BEST MEATLOAF EVER!

Steps:

• Pre heat over to about 350 degrees.
• I think the only way to make meatloaf is with your hands. Using a mixer or other stirring implement always seemed to make the meatloaf tough.
• So throw everything into a great big bowl and mix it all up with your hands. I like to push the breadcrumbs into the meat and make sure they kind of break up a bit.
• in a separate bowl mix together the last 3 ingredients - remaining tomato paste, brown sugar and BBQ sauce.
• Throw the whole crazy meatloaf mess into a pan and spread the topping across the entire top.
• Bake in the over for about an hour or until the center is done.

CRAZY GOOD MEATLOAF (FINALLY) !

Steps:

• For Loaf:.
• Mix all ingredients by hand until everything is well incorporated.
• Put in large loaf pan (or 2 smaller loaf pans) leaving 1/2-1" gap on one end for grease to drain to.
• OR for muffins, form meat mixture packed & rounded into each muffin space (makes approximately 10 regular sized muffins, usually 2 per person). Do place over a cookie sheet so that you don't have grease drip onto your oven.
• Generously brush on glaze to top(s).
• For loaf: Bake at 350 approx 1 hours.
• For "Muffins": Bake at 350 for approx 30-40 minutes.
• Or until meat tests done in center at 160-170 degrees.
• Serve with a side of the glaze, & use any leftover glaze with leftovers.
