MEATLOAF RECIPE



Meatloaf recipe image

Recipe video above. Meatloaf is so much more than a giant hunk of ground beef in a loaf shape. It should ooze with flavour, be moist and tender yet not crumble apart when sliced. And the caramelised glaze is the crowning glory!

Categories     Main

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup panko breadcrumbs ((Note 1))
1 large onion (, grated (brown, yellow))
1 kg / 2 lb ground beef (mince) (, preferably not lean)
2 eggs
3 garlic cloves (, minced)
1 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
1/4 cup tomato ketchup
1/4 cup chopped parsley ((optional), or 2 tsp dried parsley or basil)
1 tsp dried thyme
2 beef bouillon cubes (, crumbled or 2 tsp beef powder (Note 2))
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 cup tomato ketchup
2 tbsp cider vinegar
1 tbsp brown sugar (, lightly packed)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 180C/350F. Oil or spray a loaf tin. (Note 3)
  • Glaze: Mix together in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Meatloaf: Place breadcrumbs in a very large bowl. Grate over onion. Mix so the breadcrumbs are all wet. (Note 4)
  • Add remaining ingredients. Mix well using your hands. Form into a loaf shape, pinching together then smoothing over creases and cracks (helps prevent cracks during baking).
  • Transfer into loaf tin. Brush generously with glaze, using about 1/2.
  • Bake for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and brush with most of the remaining glaze. If there is excess fat pooling, scoop/pour it off.
  • Bake for a further 30 minutes. Remove from oven.
  • Stand for 10 minutes before turning out and cutting into thick slices. You will probably get a bit of crumbling just on the edges of the first couple of slices, this is normal and indicative of the tenderness of the meatloaf (zero crumble indicates firm packed harder meatloaf which isn't as enjoyable!).
  • Ideal served with a dollop of ketchup, creamy mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables.

CLASSIC MEATLOAF

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).

PAUL PRUDHOMME'S CAJUN MEAT LOAF



Paul Prudhomme's Cajun Meat Loaf image

I've never been a fan of meat loaf. After all, its a loaf of meat with ketchup on it...or so I thought. My friend made this for me last night and it was so good! The recipe is from Paul Prudhomme (of K-Paul's, New Orleans). Warning: this is very spicy and if you're not used to eating "cajun" type foods, you might want to back off on the cayenne & hot sauce just a bit.

Provided by Tracey D Mizell

Categories     Cajun

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 whole bay leaves
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon cayenne (ground red pepper)
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
3/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
1/4 cup finely chopped green onion
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup catsup
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1/2 lb ground pork
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup very fine dry breadcrumb

Steps:

  • Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions, celery, bell peppers, green onions, garlic, Tabasco, Worcestershire and seasoning mix.
  • Saute until mixture starts sticking excessively; about 6 minutes, stirring occasionally and scraping the pan bottom well.
  • Stir in the milk and catsup.
  • Continue cooking for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Remove from heat and allow mixture to cool to room temperature. REMOVE BAY LEAVES.
  • Place ground beef and pork in an ungreased 9 x 13 inch baking pan.
  • Add the eggs, cooked vegetable mixture (cooled) and the bread crumbs. Mix by hand until thoroughly combined.
  • In the center of the pan, shape the mixture into a loaf that is about 1 1/2 inches high, 6 inches wide and 12 inches long.
  • Bake uncovered at 350° for 25 minutes, then raise heat to 400° and continue to cook until done, about 35 minutes longer.
  • Serve Immediately as is or with "Very Hot Cajun Sauce for Beef".

Tips:

  • Use ground chuck or sirloin for a flavorful meatloaf. These cuts of beef have a good amount of fat, which will help keep the meatloaf moist and juicy.
  • Add some bread crumbs or crackers to the meatloaf mixture. This will help to bind the ingredients together and prevent the meatloaf from falling apart.
  • Season the meatloaf mixture generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as oregano, basil, or thyme.
  • Mix the meatloaf mixture thoroughly, but do not overmix it. Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough.
  • Form the meatloaf mixture into a loaf shape and place it in a baking dish. Bake the meatloaf at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 1 hour, or until it is cooked through.
  • Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to keep the juices in the meatloaf.

Conclusion:

Meatloaf is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. There are many different ways to make meatloaf, so you can find a recipe that suits your taste.
