Time 1h20m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 eggs, beaten
¾ cup milk
½ cup dry bread crumbs
¼ cup chopped onion
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon crumbled dried sage
1 ½ pounds ground beef
½ cup ketchup
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon dry mustard powder

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  • In a bowl, lightly mix the beaten eggs, milk, bread crumbs, onion, salt, black pepper, and sage together until thoroughly combined. Gently work in the ground beef until mixed; press the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the loaf is no longer pink inside and the juices run clear, about 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
  • While the meat loaf is baking, mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, and dry mustard powder in a bowl until the sugar has dissolved. When loaf is done, pull from the oven, and spread topping over the loaf. Return to oven, and bake until the topping is set, about 10 more minutes.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound lean ground beef
1 clove garlic or 1/8 tsp garlic powder
1 small onion
2 slices of bread with crust
1/4 cup milk
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon fresh or 1/4 tsp dried sage leaves

Tear the bread into small and add to beef mixture. Add the milk, Worcestershire sauce, sage, salt, mustard, pepper, and egg to the beef mixture. Mix with a fork, large spoon or your hands until the ingredients are well mixed. Place the bee mixture in the ungreased baking pan. Almost any size pan with work; just be sure the pan has sides on it to catch the juices that will accumulate while the meatloaf bakes.

A meat thermometer inserted in the center of the loaf should read 160 degrees. Let the loaf stand 5 minutes, so it will be easier to remove from the pan. cut the loaf into slices.

BETTER THAN MOM'S MEATLOAF



Better Than Mom's Meatloaf image

My mom's classic meatloaf was lacking in flavor and the topping was way too sweet. This "better than mom's" version still has lots of old-school appeal but has been kicked up a notch with a rich and savory flavor, plus we said goodbye to the sugary sweet topping. Sliced meatloaf leftovers make the best sandwiches. I like mine with mustard, cheese, and grilled onions!

  • Season the meatloaf well: Use a variety of spices and herbs to give your meatloaf flavor. Some good options include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
