COUNTRY STYLE MEATLOAF RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°.
• Add the squeezed out wet bread to a large bowl along with the peppers, onions, garlic, ground beef, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper and mix thoroughly until completely combined.
• Divide the mixture between to 9x5 prepared loaf pans and pack it in tight. You can line one of the pans with bacon as I did in the video for extra flavor if you prefer.
• In a small bowl mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, and soy sauce until combined and add it to the top of the meatloaf and spread around to coat the top.
• Bake in the oven at 375° for 50-60 minutes or until cooked throughout and reads 165° internally.
• Rest for 3-4 minutes, slice, and serve.

COUNTRY MEATLOAF RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat; add mushrooms, onion, celery, carrots, and water.
• Heat to boiling; cover and cook for 10 minutes, or until vegetables are just tender-crisp.
• In a large bowl, combine ground beef, flour, seasoned salt , thyme, parsley, soy sauce, and the cooked vegetables.
• Mix gently and shape into a loaf in a greased, shallow baking pan (with sides).
• Bake the meatloaf at 350 F for about 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until the loaf is crusty and browned. The meatloaf is done when it reaches 160 F on a meat thermometer.

COUNTRY-STYLE MEAT LOAF

Steps:

• Lightly steam onions, celery, and bell peppers and let cool. Place the cooled vegetables into a mixing bowl and add the pork, sirloin, ketchup, eggs, half and half and mix well. Mix in the oatmeal and spice mix. Place the meat into a loaf pan lined with bacon strips. Place in refrigerator overnight so that the meat loaf firms up. When ready for use, remove from the refrigerator; cover the top of the loaf pan with aluminum foil; place in a pre-heated 350 degree oven on top of a roasting pan. Do this to prevent the overspill from making a mess out of your oven and cook until the inside temperature (with a thermometer) reaches 165 degrees (about 1 1/2 hours). 15 minutes before it is done, remove the foil - this will allow the top to brown. Remove from the oven and pour out excess oil and let it sit for 20 minutes. Turn the loaf pan upside down to remove the meatloaf. Slice with a sharp knife.

CLASSIC WEEKNIGHT MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Make meatloaf: Preheat oven to 400ºF. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil. Combine onions, pepper, ketchup, mustard, breadcrumbs, eggs, Worcestershire, oregano, and thyme in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Gently mix in beef with your hands, being careful not to overmix. (It should be soft but hold its shape.) Transfer meat to prepared baking sheet and shape into a 10-by-5-inch loaf.
• Make topping: Combine ketchup, Worcestershire, and brown sugar in a bowl. Brush meatloaf with 3 tablespoons topping. Place bacon crosswise over top of meatloaf and cover with remaining glaze. Bake 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F and bake until an instant-read thermometer reaches 160°F, 35 to 40 minutes. Let rest 15 minutes before serving.

HEARTY COUNTRY MEATLOAF WITH SOUR CREAM GRAVY

Steps:

• Tear the bread into small pieces and soak in a large mixing bowl with the milk while you prepare the rest of the loaf.

• Let cool.
• Mix the vegetables and meat into the bread mixture with your hands.
• Add the eggs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, marjoram, thyme, salt and pepper; mix by hand in a circular motion.
• Form into a free-form 9" x 5" loaf.
• Drape with the bacon and place on a greased rack in a broiler pan.
• Bake in a preheated 375 degree F oven for about 1 hour and 15 to 30 minutes, or until browned and meat is cooked through.
• Lift off the rack and keep warm while making the gravy.
• Pour 1/4 cup of the pan drippings into a small saucepan.
• Stir flour into the drippings until smooth.
• Cook, stirring, over medium heat 3 minutes.
• Gradually stir in the stock and bring to a boil.

CLASSIC MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Place the carrot, celery, onion, red bell pepper, mushrooms, and garlic in a food processor, and pulse until very finely chopped, almost to a puree. Place the minced vegetables into a large mixing bowl, and mix in ground chuck, Worcestershire sauce, and egg. Add Italian herbs, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Mix gently with a wooden spoon to incorporate vegetables and egg into the meat. Pour in bread crumbs. With your hand, gently mix in the crumbs with your fingertips just until combined, about 1 minute.
• Form the meatloaf into a ball. Pour olive oil into a baking dish and place the ball of meat into the dish. Shape the ball into a loaf, about 4 inches high by 6 inches across.
• Bake in the preheated oven just until the meatloaf is hot, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, ketchup, Dijon mustard, and hot sauce. Stir until the brown sugar has dissolved.
• Remove the meatloaf from the oven. With the back of a spoon, smooth the glaze onto the top of the meatloaf, then pull a little bit of glaze down the sides of the meatloaf with the back of the spoon.
• Return meatloaf to oven, and bake until the loaf is no longer pink inside and the glaze has baked onto the loaf, 30 to 40 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the loaf should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Cooking time will depend on shape and thickness of the meatloaf.
