TURKEY AND BEEF MEATLOAF



Turkey and Beef Meatloaf image

My intent was to make Cranberry Bog Turkey Burgers, ala Rachael Ray. Upon discovering that I had defrosted both beef and turkey rather than 2 pounds of turkey, I took her recipe and added my own twists to make a tender and moist meatloaf. The listed amounts of spices and herbs yield a mild flavor so if you like more punch, you'll want to increase them. For better slicing, let the loaves rest after baking or they will crumble under your knife. Mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce make great side dishes with this recipe.

TURKEY MEATLOAF



Turkey Meatloaf image

Try Ina Garten's Turkey Meatloaf recipe from Barefoot Contessa on Food Network for a leaner take on the American classic.

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h10m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups chopped yellow onions (2 large onions)
2 tablespoons good olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (1/2 teaspoon dried)
1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
3/4 cup chicken stock
1 1/2 teaspoons tomato paste
5 pounds ground turkey breast
1 1/2 cups plain dry bread crumbs
3 extra-large eggs, beaten
3/4 cup ketchup

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • In a medium saute pan, over medium-low heat, cook the onions, olive oil, salt, pepper, and thyme until translucent, but not browned, approximately 15 minutes. Add the Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and tomato paste and mix well. Allow to cool to room temperature.
  • Combine the ground turkey, bread crumbs, eggs, and onion mixture in a large bowl. Mix well and shape into a rectangular loaf on an ungreased sheet pan. Spread the ketchup evenly on top. Bake for 1 1/2 hours until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F. and the meatloaf is cooked through. (A pan of hot water in the oven under the meatloaf will keep the top from cracking.) Serve hot, at room temperature, or cold in a sandwich.

A slightly lighter version of the all-American classic, this satisfying meatloaf uses chicken broth and soaked panko to stay moist, and a mix of fresh herbs for flavor. It's the best turkey meatloaf you'll find!

Stir in the Worcestershire. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
  • Add the panko to a large mixing bowl and pour over the chicken broth so the breadcrumbs soak up the liquid.

Form the mixture into a 10-by-5-inch loaf on the foil-lined baking sheet. Coat the top and sides with the ketchup.

BEST TURKEY MEATLOAF



Best Turkey Meatloaf image

After much trial and error trying to make a more healthy meatloaf, I came up with this recipe. It is important to make this on a baking sheet so the liquids can be drained off the meatloaf. Also, do not put the topping on before the meatloaf has cooked for 30 minutes. Turkey creates a lot of juices, so if you put the topping on first it will become watery and runny.

TASTY TURKEY MEATLOAF



Tasty Turkey Meatloaf image

A lighter version of your mom's meatloaf. Ground turkey is a gift from the food gods, cooked properly it is just as satisfying (if not more) as beef. The secret is to find ways to add moisture and flavor it with bold seasoning. The Worcestershire beefs it up well, too. Beef taste without the fat, it doesn't get much better! I also took a time-saving tip from Rachel Ray, which is to form the meatloaf into personal sized portions, which cuts the cook time from an hour to about 25 minutes.

Provided by Korkin

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 30m

Yield 4 loaves, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb ground turkey
1 medium yellow onion
1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 egg
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
1/2 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  • Place the turkey in a large mixing bowl. Place a cheese grater over the bowl and grate the onion so that the onion juice gets into the meat. Fluff the turkey meat with a fork (this keeps the meat from getting too mushy), then add the bread crumbs.
  • Add remaining ingredients into a small separate bowl and mix them them together to create a sauce, this insures even ingredient distribution. Pour the sauce mixture over the meat and mix with either a fork or your hands gently until just combined. Even the meat mixture out in the bowl and use your fork or finger to divide it into four equal sections.
  • Scoop out each section and use hand to form an oval shaped mound, like a slightly flattened meat ball. Place each section on a foil-lined baking sheet (foil makes for easy clean up!).
  • Bake loaves on the middle rack at 375 degrees for 25 minutes, or until internal temperature is 165 degrees farenheit. Makes four servings.
