how many eggs and crackers should you put in a meatloaf?

Answer 1

Depends on how much meat you're using. I generally use 2 pounds and only one egg. I use bread crumbs, not crackers, and I just add them until I get the texture I want.

Answer 2

Cracker Meatloaf

Answer 3

FAMILY MEATLOAF

2 lbs ground round
1 cup bread crumbs or crushed saltine crackers
2 eggs
1 cup Parmesan cheese
1 small onion diced
1 clove garlic crushed
1 pkg meatloaf seasoning mix
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1 small can tomato sauce

Mix ground beef, bread crumbs, eggs, 1/2 cup cheese, onion, garlic, seasoning packet, and black pepper. Pour tomato sauce over the top and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese. Place in a loaf pan and bake at 350°F for 1 1/2 hours on bottom rack of oven.
Final internal temperature should be 170°F for ground beef. Ovens vary, so check meatloaf after 1 hour

Answer 4

Only one egg is good enough for the biggest meatloaf. I make 3 pounders. Two eggs just makes it to sticky. Crackers? depends on how much meat you start with, but i'd say 1/2 cup per pound of meat.

Answer 9

For each pound of ground meat, I use one egg and about 1/3 cup of bread crumbs (or cracker crumbs). I also use 1/2 (8 oz) can of tomato sauce in the meat loaf and pour the other half on top before baking - keeps it really moist!
