Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h25m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds ground meatloaf mix (equal parts ground beef, pork and veal or turkey)
1 cup dried breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 medium onion, grated
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons light brown sugar

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.

PIONEER WOMAN FAVORITE MEATLOAF



Pioneer Woman Favorite Meatloaf image

Enjoy this, my friends! If you're on the fence about meatloaf, or even if you've written it off entirely as something you'd never ever try, give this a shot. Consider it adventure eating, like huitlacoche. Or calf nuts.

Categories     Meatloaf

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup whole milk
6 slices white bread
2 lbs ground beef
1 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
1/4 teaspoon seasoning salt
3/4 teaspoon salt
fresh ground black pepper
1/3 cup flat leaf parsley, minced
4 whole eggs, beaten
10 slices bacon, thin
1 1/2 cups ketchup
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
Tabasco sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Pour milk over the bread slices. Allow it to soak in for several minutes.
  • Place the ground beef, milk-soaked bread, Parmesan cheese, seasoned salt, salt, black pepper, and parsley in a large mixing bowl.
  • Pour in beaten eggs.
  • With clean hands, mix the ingredients until well combined.
  • Form the mixture into a loaf shape on a broiler pan, which will allow the fat to drain. (Line the bottom of the pan with foil to avoid a big mess!).
  • Lay bacon slices over the top, tucking them underneath the meatloaf.
  • Make the sauce. Add ketchup, brown sugar, dry mustard, and hot sauce in a mixing bowl. Stir together. Pour 1/3 of the mixture over the top of the bacon. Spread with a spoon.
  • Bake for 45 minutes.

GRANDMA'S FAMOUS MEATLOAF WITH SALTINES



Grandma's Famous Meatloaf with Saltines image

This is the recipe my grandmother used to make her meatloaf. Most notably it doesn't have any sort of sauce coating the top as is called for in many meatloaf recipes. My family enjoys it this way but I'm relatively certain that any standard meatloaf sauce would do if you want one.

Categories     Meatloaf

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 meatloaf, 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb ground beef
2 eggs
salt (to taste)
pepper (to taste)
1 onion, chopped (Optional, I usually omit it or use a teaspoon of dried minced onion. You also don't need the whole o)
2 -3 tablespoons ketchup, heaping
1 tablespoon yellow mustard, heaping
1 cup saltine crumbs, crushed. (This is usually most of one sleeve of saltines.)

Steps:

  • Mix all together; I generally use my hands.
  • Form mixture into a loaf shape.
  • Put in a baking dish (I use a pie plate).
  • Bake at 350 for 1 hour.
  • NOTE: I always put a little water in my pan. I've never done it any other way, so I don't know what would result if you don't.

THE BEST MEATLOAF I'VE EVER MADE



The Best Meatloaf I've Ever Made image

When I was growing up, my mom never ever made meatloaf and I always wanted to try it - I finally tried it at a restaurant and loved it. When I moved out on my own I started experimenting with different recipes and creating my own version. I finally came up with the best meatloaf I have ever made, and I wanted to share it.
