Mixed Meat Meatloaf Recipes

CLASSIC MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
• Combine the meatloaf mix, breadcrumbs, parsley, eggs, onion, garlic, 1/4 cup of the ketchup, 1 tablespoon of the Worcestershire, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large mixing bowl. Using your hands, mix together until well combined.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet and form it into a compact oval-shaped loaf about 9 inches by 5 inches. Bake the meatloaf for 30 minutes.
• Stir the brown sugar together with the remaining 1/4 cup ketchup and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire in a small bowl for the glaze. Brush the top and sides of the meatloaf all over with the glaze. Return to the oven and bake until the glaze starts to caramelize and a thermometer inserted in the center of the meatloaf registers 160 degrees F, about 25 minutes more. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

THREE-MEAT MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Oil a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
• Place the onion and carrots into a saucepan, and pour in the beef broth. Bring to a boil over medium heat, and reduce heat to a simmer; cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender, about 8 minutes. Set the veggies and broth aside.
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs, and stir in bread crumbs, basil, salt, and black pepper. Allow the mixture to stand for 5 minutes to moisten the crumbs, and lightly mix in the turkey, beef, and pork sausage. Mix in the cooked onions, carrots, and beef broth. Place the mixture into the prepared loaf pan. In a bowl, mix the tomato soup, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard together, and spread the mixture over the meat loaf.
• Bake until the loaf is no longer pink in the center and an instant-read meat thermometer reads at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 1 1/2 hours.

MIXED MEAT MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Saute onions in the oil until soft and translucent, on a low heat. When onions are cooked, add the garlic and cook until the garlic is soft. Set aside to cool.
• Crush the Crispix and Cheez-Its.
• Mix together the meat, eggs, Cheez-Its, Crispix, hoisin sauce, pepper, salt, and sauteed onions and garlic. Best way is to mix it with your hands and not pack it too tightly. You want to get it mixed well but not squeeze it together too much.
• Form a loaf in either a loaf pan or in a mound on a cookie sheet. You can make meatloaf muffins in a muffin pan, if preferred, or just small meatloaves on a cookie sheet. Do not tightly pack the extra down. If there's extra after filling a loaf pan, make small meatloaves on a cookie sheet. (Can either make 2 loaf pans, 2 cookie sheets of individual meatloaves, or a mix of the two.).
• For the glaze, mix together the can of tomato paste, honey, Worcestershire sauce, and remaining seasonings. Adjust cayenne for preferred heat level. Generously glaze meatloaf. You may not use it all up.
• Bake at 350 for 45 - 60 minutes. If making individual loaves with a loaf pan, it is recommended that you put the loaf pan into the oven first for 15 minutes then add the cookie sheet with the smaller loaves in for the remaining 45 minutes.

MIXED MEAT MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Mix the ground beef, eggs,and Jimmy Dean Sage Sausage in a large bowl by kneading the meats together with your hands.
• Add spices (You CAN adjust to taste!) and Worcestersire Sauce and knead the meats again.
• Knead into the meat mixture the Minute Rice. This will be rough, but take your time so it is easier on your hands. The rice is a replacement for breadcrumbs in most recipes, so it will help absorb fat and serve as a filler.
• In a large baking pan or Pyrex baking dish, set the meat mixture in and mold it to fill the dish, leaving at least a 1/2 to 1 inch gap between the meat and the sides of the dish. I use a very large Pyrex baking dish.
• Lay the bacon slices over the top of the meatloaf, evenly spaced. Use what you prefer, just so it adds to the flavor of the meat.
• Bake in a preheated oven at 375 degrees for at least 90 minutes. This is a heavy weight meatloaf and you want it to cook through. You can check like I do by slicing about halfway through the thickness to be sure the meat is no longer pink. Remember you are also using pork in this.
• Let the meatloaf cool for about 5 minutes after you take it out of the oven. Set it on a large meat plate (remember it is HEAVY) and slice to desired thicknesses and serve with side dishes such as mashed potatoes and vegetables for a more traditional meal.
• NOT a diet food, so if you are looking for pure traditional comfort, enjoy!

BEST EVER MEAT LOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Whisk eggs, milk, salt, and ground black pepper in a large bowl. Add crumbled bread and stir until dissolved. Mix ground beef, onion, Cheddar cheese, and carrot into bread mixture; transfer mixture to a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Combine brown sugar, ketchup, and mustard in a small bowl; spread over meat mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, 1 to 1 1/4 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
