CORNBREAD MEATLOAF



Cornbread Meatloaf image

Put your leftover cornbread to good use! From a neighbor when I lived down South. UPDATE (4/11/08): Change from original posting: I've always had to cook this about an hour, but I thought that was just me, so I when I originally posted this I left the cooking time at 3/4 hour, which was how I received it. However, since all the reviewers have noted that they, too, have to cook it longer, I have now changed the cooking time to 1 hour.

CLASSIC MEATLOAF



Classic Meatloaf image

Good meatloaf is about as comforting as comfort food gets. Thankfully, meatloaf doesn't have to be complex to be good. It just needs to be tender (from breadcrumbs soaked in milk and gentle handling) and flavorful (from onion, garlic, and ketchup).

  • Cook the bacon before adding it to the meatloaf. This will help to prevent the bacon from becoming greasy.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture. Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough.
  • Use a loaf pan that is at least 9x5 inches. This will give the meatloaf enough room to expand while cooking.
  • Bake the meatloaf at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the meatloaf to retain its juices.
