anybody with a good meatloaf recipe?

Answer 1

I've always liked this version that tastes like Boston Market:

Top Secret Recipes version of Boston Market Meatloaf
•1 cup tomato sauce
•1 1/2 tablespoons Kraft original barbecue sauce
•1 tablespoon granulated sugar
•1 1/2 pounds ground sirloin (10% fat)
•6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
•3/4 teaspoon salt
•1/2 teaspoon onion powder
•1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
•dash garlic powder

1.Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2.Combine the tomato sauce, barbecue sauce and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Heat the mixture until it begins to bubble, stirring often, then remove it from the heat.
3.In a large bowl, add all but 2 tablespoons of the tomato sauce to the meat. Use a large wooden spoon or your hands to work the sauce into the meat until it is very well combined.
4.Combine the remaining ingredients with the ground sirloin-- flour, salt, onion powder and ground pepper. Use the wooden spoon or your hands to work the spices and flour into the meat.
5.Load the meat into a loaf pan (preferably a meatloaf pan with two sections which allows the fat to drain, but if you don't have one of those a regular loaf pan will work). Wrap foil over the pan and place it into the oven for 30 minutes.
6.After 30 minutes, take the meatloaf from the oven, remove the foil and, if you aren't using a meatloaf pan, drain the fat.
7.Using a knife, slice the meatloaf all the way through into 8 slices while it is still in the pan. This will help to cook the center of the meatloaf. Pour the remaining 2 tablespoons of sauce over the top of the meatloaf, in a stream down the center. Don't spread the sauce.
8.Place the meatloaf back into the oven, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes or until it is done. Remove and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serves 4.

Answer 2

This is a recipe that has been in my family for over 30 years. Moms Famous Meatloaf Sauce: 2 small cans tomato sauce 1/4 cup worchestershire sauce 1/2 onion chopped 1 tablespoon dried parsley 1/2 cup brown sugar Mix all sauce ingredients together in bowl, set aside. Ingredients (Meatloaf): 2 pounds ground beef 1/2 chopped onion 1 egg, beaten 1/2 cup or more if needed, quick oatmeal (not instant) 1 teaspoon garlic salt In another bowl add ground beef, 1/2 chopped onion, egg, oatmeal, garlic salt, pepper, and 1/3 of the sauce mixture. Mix together well. Place in pan, making space between meat and pan around edges with fingers. Flatten top, spread more sauce over top and cook 1 hour, at 350F. Drain off grease half way (30 min) and add more sauce. Reserve some sauce for adding when served. The oatmeal disappears, is healthy and you can't taste it. It just holds it together better. Add more if you need it.

Answer 6

Try this one - it is Meatloaf Stuffed Green Peppers:

6 green bell peppers (about 1/2 pound each)
1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup finely chopped onion
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/4 pounds lean ground chuck
1/2 pound ground pork
1/4 cup chopped scallion greens
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley leaves
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

In a kettle of boiling salted water blanch the bell peppers, covered partially, for 3 minutes and transfer them to a bowl of ice and cold water to stop the cooking. Cut 3/4 inch from the stem end of each bell pepper, reserving the bottoms, and chop fine the flesh from around the stems, discarding the stems. In a bowl let the bread crumbs soak in the cream for 8 minutes, or until the cream is absorbed. In a skillet cook the onion in the butter over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until it is softened and let it cool. Stir the onion mixture into the bread crumb mixture, stir in the chuck, the pork, the scallion greens, the parsley, the salt, the cloves, and black pepper to taste, and divide the mixture among the bell peppers. Arrange the bell peppers in a shallow 15 1/2- by 10 1/2-baking pan, add 2 cups water to the pan, and bake the peppers in the middle of a preheated 375°F. oven for 1 hour, or until the meat is no longer pink.





This is a recipe I use. Can't say where I got it from as I do all my own cooking and don't follow recipes. This one is good I think you'll like it.
1 lb ground beef. 80 % lean.
1 box Lipton beefy onion or golden onion soup mix.
1 egg
1 bread crumbs
garlic
& Lastly some B-B-Q sauce.
Mix the soup mix, egg, bread crumbs, & ground beef together. The bread crumbs use as much as needed. Season it with garlic. Again I season to taste. Throw in some pepper and salt too. Once all this is mixed together you can shape it and into a loaf. Thorw it into a crock pot and add B-B-Q sauce. Oh, before I forget put three holes in the top of the loaf about the diamiter of your index finger. About half way down into the loaf. Put some sauce into these three holes. The sauce in the crock pot mix in a little water to thin it out mostly so it doesn't form too bad of a crust in the crock pot. Turn on med heat or high and cook til done. At high heat keep an eye on it so as NOT to burn it. On med heat not so bad BUT do check on it and baste it with the base keeping the meat tender so it doesn't dry up on you. I believe you'll find this tasty, and I hope you like it. IF you try this receipe, send me an e-mail and l;et me know if you liked it or not. I do take critizin well.

Here's a good one and just for the record, I don't even like meatloaf but since I've made this one i eat it every other week.

Savory Meat Loaf
A Betty Crocker Kitchens favorite, this herb-flecked meat loaf is everything a good meat loaf should be!

1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage leaves or 1/4 teaspoon dried sage leaves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 garlic clove, finely chopped or 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1 egg
3 slices bread, torn into small pieces
1 small onion, chopped (1/4 cup)
1/2 cup ketchup, chili sauce or barbecue sauce


1 . Heat oven to 350°F.
2 . Mix all ingredients except ketchup. Spread mixture in ungreased loaf pan, 8 1/2x4 1/2x2 1/2 or 9x5x3 inches, or shape into 9x5-inch loaf in ungreased rectangular pan, 13x9x2 inches. Spread ketchup over top.
3 . Insert meat thermometer so tip is in center of loaf. Bake uncovered 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes or until thermometer reads 160°F.

I didn't do the bbq, ketchup or chili sauce on top, cause I had gravy with mine! Oh and instead of the 3 slices of bread, I used a cup of breadcrumbs. Oh and one more thing, if you like sage then keep it in, if you are not fond of it like me then take it out. The first time I left it in, but since then I have kept it out and it is just as good!

This recipe was a huge success amongst my friends, hope you enjoy it!
