If I don't have ketchup I'll put barbecue sauce in it, almost always Worcestershire sauce. Everything else that's been mentioned, or not.
That’s a lot of meatloaf! Salsa and jalapeñosMy go to recipe for meatloaf is the following:
5 pounds of ground chuck(it's what I prefer).
2 peeled and diced onions
2 gloves of garlic
4 Sweet peppers(red, green, yellow and orange)
Seeded, cut into strips, then diced.
4 Jalapeno's seeded and thinly cut into rings then diced
1 cup of old fashion oats
4 large eggs
2 large carrots peeled and Julianne and diced
2 pints of tomato salsa(chunky homemade)
Mix everything together
Place into miniature loaf pans, usually get 8-10 miniature meatloaves.
My Meatloaf recipe can also be used as base for hamburger soup.
It also can be used for base for Shepard's pie.
My measurements are approx.
Enjoy!
That's what I do.I suppose you could freeze little meat loafs and have a quick dinner?
Absolutely! Maybe you didn't see the thread about meal prepping or the discussion earlier about freezing it. I've made large batches of meatloaf and frozen it into meal sized portions. Mo makes small meatloaves and freezes them.I suppose you could freeze little meat loafs and have a quick dinner?
I use a lot of fresh ground pepper, onions, garlic, jalenpeno's .What do we think makes meatloaf taste better? What seasonings makes it better?
I try to make it without bread, crackers, oatmeal. I try to use more eggs to help it bind together. I love lots of onions in it, along with some garlic (powder or chopped) and seasoning salt. Of course there is the tomato, usually ketchup. Salt and pepper are important.
You know, this recipe was similar to how my mom use to make it. Man, it was great. Problem now is my "other half" makes it her way, which is bland, flavorless and since there is no binders (eggs, oatmeal,etc) it tastes like a slow cooked burger. I would love to provide her your recipe, but my mom told me to never "bite the hand that feeds me!"
My mom couldn't cook.I would not give you my mom's meatloaf recipe.
It was really bad.
He might enjoy it.That’s a lot of meatloaf! Salsa and jalapeñosthat blew my top just reading it

We used to get a box or carton of matches that came in something called books with maybe 20 matches in a book. Hunts had a series of matches that had recipes on them. My dad smoked and used the matches, and cooked a meatloaf from a Hunt's match book. I remember that is was so delicious. It had either ground pork or pork sausage as well as ground beef. I wish I had that recipe.I use a pound of pork sausage and a pound of ground beef, usually 80/20. I put in onions, sometimes mushrooms and a packet of Lipton onion soup mix. Some worcestshire sauce, maybe some liquid smoke, paprika, pepper. A couple eggs, maybe some panko or oatmeal. I think it comes out pretty tasty.

I make mine in miniature loaf pans, because they stack better in the freezer.I never knew people made meatloaf in loaf pans, and I guess I still don't understand why. You know, other than I am sure that's where the name comes from. Wouldn't that just trap the nasty stuff in with the meatloaf? I usually make mine in a smoker on top of a mesh pan, but when I do make one in the oven I just throw it on a raised edge cookie sheet and mold it into the shape I want. Then I can surround it with red potatoes and onions and get a nice crust all around the meat.
I was with you until the last sentence! Lol!!What I have tried is using corned beef hash instead of hamburger. I didn't really have all the good extra ingredients but enough. It came out way better than I thought it would. It used to be CBH was cheap as people preferred the roast beef hash, good also I'd bet. Spice it up with some Italian sausage, garlic and herb croutons and what ever your mad, mad little minds can imagine. It really isn't bad at all I think but then I put strips of bologna in my lime kool aid.
Are you one of those people that put ketchup on ice cream by any chance?It really isn't bad at all I think but then I put strips of bologna in my lime kool aid.
Really... ?? Will have to try that....Are you one of those people that put ketchup on ice cream by any chance?![]()
YOU ARE AWESOME!!I made meatloaf and potatoes last Sunday night. It was neighbor boy Levi's 12th birthday, so he stayed for supper. He gave dinner a thumbs up.
