Ok who likes meatloaf

I'm pretty sure Mom added an egg or two to the half ground beef, half ground mild sausage meat mixture she used for meatloaf, as well as a few ounces of evaporated milk (not condensed milk, big difference). Crushed cornflakes instead of bread crumbs or cracker crumbs, finely diced onion and whatever spices in her pantry that struck her fancy...I don't think she ever made it exactly the same way but her meatloaf was always awesome.

I grew up in the 1950s, an era of inexpensive ground beef...3 lbs for a dollar except when it was on sale for 4 lbs for a dollar.

I've eaten ground beef every way it can possibly be prepared. Check Google for a dish called Indian Corn Stew...really good...just another use for ground beef. ((Grin!))

Oh, my...love him!

I can give you a secret ingredient for any meatloaf. It makes the texture moist, holding it together.


oh heck. I will just give you one way to make it. Give me minute and I will come back and post it!(yes, I will include the secret ingredient)

ground meat
eggs
Italian Bread crumbs or raw Oatmeal ( for filler binder)
1 small can of tomato paste (fill this can with water, add)
salt & pepper to taste
finely diced onion

mix all ingredients, bake at 350 for 1 hour, ** keep drippings for gravy for mashed potatoes.


Leftover Meatloaf makes a great sandwich, just saying.

(Caramelize an onion while this is going on and baking... you will see why in a minute)?


A good lb lean ground beef(very lean)
3 or 4 slices of bread (crumbed) 2 TBSP melted butter
stir into bread crumbs melted butter and seasonings(salt, cracked pepper) Suggestions: Garlic salt, chili powder, nutmeg
2 eggs stirred with 1/4 c milk
2 TBSP Honey(secret ingredient)

squirt of catsup. ... mix up good. Bake at 300 degrees for an hour. Increase heat to 350 and cover the top of the meatloaf with those caramelized onions. Finish baking another 20 minutes or so. Less if you want onions golden. I am ok with them blackened. Either way is good!

This slices up nice for sandwiches thanks to the honey!


sometimes I add capers or chopped green olives. this is a good basic to start with and make your own style and preferences from here!

is he the guy that sings the song in the mcdonalds advertisements?

No. Hear how good it is then i make it. Square over size burger swimming in oil less than half its original size.

Rather fry ham steaks.

a box of stuffing works better than crackers.
way better.

1.5 lb hamburger
3 slices whole wheat bread, cubed
medium onion chopped small
1 8oz can tomato sauce
2 eggs, beaten before adding to meat mixture
1/2-1 whole red or green pepper diced fine
tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 grated carrots or 1 carrot, 1 zucchini to sneak veggies in
can add 1/4 cup milk..more tender, but I usually don't

mix everything together without the meat, when well combined add meat and combine. The more you work ground beef the tougher it gets, so mix everything first and then quickly combine meat till everything is well distributed.

Put in a large loaf pan. Preheat oven to 350.

Mix 1 can tomato paste with a couple squirts of mustard, couple tablespoons each cider vinegar and brown sugar and mix well. Put it on top of the meatloaf and bake for about an hour and a half. Remove, LET SIT 10-15 minutes to firm up before cutting. Can put foil over the top to keep it hotter.

Sandwiches the next day are soooo good

Can I crash on your sofa for like a week and eat your meals, bro?

I like 2 of the 3 of his songs...

1/4 cup finely minced fresh parsley
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the Glaze:
3/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

my entire family loves my meatloaf
simple but delicious
lean ground beef
1 or 2 eggs depending on amount of beef
Worcestershire sauce
chopped onion
mustard & ketchup
crushed saltines
leftover meatloaf sandwiches are delish

Not just cake. Meat cake.

:meatcake:

He has a powerful voice.. I like some of his songs :-)..

Mix in diced jalapenos. Use enchilada sauce instead of ketchup.

Mexican Meatloaf.

I like that one :-)..

Thanks, it's going in the microwave now

The glaze must always contain some ketchup.

I've never met a meatloaf I didn't like, but the best always use a bit.

If you put carrot in there you're basically blaspheming. Texture's all wrong. Stick to celery, onion, etc.

Meatloaf is cool. Good voice.

Easy to make but delicious:

1 1/2 lb. Hamburg
1/2 bell pepper diced small
1/2 - 3/4 onion diced small
2 eggs
Italian breadcrumbs
Salt
Pepper
Dried basil
Garlic powder

Mash together. If too wet add more breadcrumbs. Texture should be like a meatball.

Transfer to loaf pan. Heat at 350 degrees for about an hour and a half.

Last 15 minutes remove from oven, transfer meatloaf with two spatulas to platter and top (only) with ketchup. Put back in oven.

I usually make baked potatoes when I make this meal. Same cooking time.

Haven't had meat loaf since I was a teen.. People still eat that stuff..

We had meatloaf yesterday.
