Rockin Meatloaf Recipes

ROCKIN' MEATLOAF!

Steps:

• 1. Saute the onion, peppers and mushrooms until soft in a saute pan with a bit of oil.
• 2. Mix the tomato sauce with everything but the meat and corn and sauted veggies.
• 3. Then put the meats, corn and veggies and wet ingredients together. Mix softly. Excessive mixing makes the meat tough. The gelatin will act to solidify the meat and when you cut it, it won't break up into a mess.
• 4. Take a loaf pan and line with Saran wrap, leaving a generous amount over the sides. Pack in the meatloaf and then pull the wrap to cover. Place in the fridge for at least two hours.
• 5. Preheat oven to 400-425. Take a roasting pan and line with foil. Get the meatloat, pull back the wrap and place a finely wired rack on top. Then invert, and place the rack in the baking dish.
• 6. Slide off the loaf pan and pull off the saran wrap. Place in oven for 1 hour.
• 7. Remove from oven, and with a metal spatula, losen and slide to a serving plate. Meatloaf is free of any grease and is nicely crusted on all sides.
• 8. Feel free to add any other ingredients you like or subtract any, except the unflavored gelatin. This is more about technique than ingredients.

MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH MEAT LOAF

Steps:

• Combine eggs, milk, bread crumbs, onion, salt, sage, and mushrooms in a large bowl. Crumble ground beef over mixture and stir well to combine. Shape into a round loaf; place in a 5-quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on Low until a meat thermometer reads 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), 5 to 6 hours.
• Whisk ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl; spoon sauce over meat loaf. Return to slow cooker and cook on Low until heated through, about 15 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.

THE BEST MEATLOAF I'VE EVER MADE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat, and cook the onion and garlic 5 minutes, until onion is tender. Remove from heat, and season with salt and pepper.
• In a large bowl, mix the onion and garlic, beef, crumbled bread, crushed crackers, egg, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, and 1/2 can tomato sauce. Gradually stir in the milk 1 teaspoon at a time until mixture is moist, but not soggy. Transfer the mixture to a 5x9 inch loaf pan.
• Bake uncovered in the preheated oven 40 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), and continue baking 15 minutes, to an internal temperature of 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
• In a small bowl, mix the remaining tomato sauce and ketchup. Pour over the top of the meatloaf, and continue baking 10 minutes.
