Answer 2

I am not sure what you mean by American meat loaf? But this is an old family meat loaf. I don't even know how much ground beef I purchase because I go by looks........(Silly huh) I want to say about 2.50 to3 pounds. Add 2 eggs and mix together. I grate 1 large onion and add that. Some people also add pork saugage, but my family doesn't care for it. Add bread crumbs or stale white bread pieces until the loaf sticks together. Don't add too much or it will be dry. Form it into a loaf. Add salt, pepper and I add some garlic salt too. Then cover it with a can of tomato sauce. I use a butter knife and poke the top of the loaf. That way some the sauce goes inside too. Cook at 300 to 325 degrees until cooked. You can tell if cut the loaf in half and check it for doneness.

Answer 3

I am an American and I certainly have made meatloaf enough times, so here goes:

Mix together 2/3 pound ground beef with 1/3 pound ground pork.
Add a cup of plain breadcrumbs or cracker crumbs, 1 egg, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 clove crushed garlic, a little diced onion if you like, 1/2 cup of ketchup, and a dash of Worcestershire sauce if you have it on hand. Grease a loaf pan lightly and pat meat mixture into the pan. Add a thin layer of ketchup to the top of the meatloaf, and bake it at 350 degrees for about an hour. Remove from oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing.

I'm not sure if this is an AMERICAN meatloaf, but it's the only kind I've ever heard of. At any rate, it's tasty either hot or cold.

Answer 4

Sorry, but it's "does"

I don't know the recipe, but my mom and dad make the absolute best meatloaf in existence. They add some seasoning such as garlic salt, etc. and bread crumbs with a few eggs and occasionally some veggies like green pepper and onion with meat and mix it up by hand. Then it is fashioned into a loaf shape on a huge pan and baked at about 375 I think. I never cooked meat loaf, but don't get me wrong I love to cook.

Answer 10

buy a big chunk of groud beef, pour in ketchup, mustard, two eggs, chopped bell pepper, chopped onion, and bread crumbs are optional. mix it all together (you must use your hands or it's not the right mixture) and form it in a pan like a big loaf. Squirt ketchup on the top and bake it a 450 for like 45 minutes to an hour or so, remove, slice, serve. Sorry about not having measurments or anything like that, my mom taught me and she never measured anything, it's just kinda a gut feeling. Good Luck.
