Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Nonstick cooking spray, for the sheet pan
1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
1 cup milk
6 slices white sandwich bread
3 pounds ground beef
1 cup grated Parmesan
1 1/2 teaspoons seasoned salt, such as Lawry's
1/2 cup minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
Freshly ground black pepper
4 large eggs, beaten
1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
6 slices regular bacon, cooked crisp, cooled and chopped
Mashed potatoes and chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for serving

Steps:

  • For the meatloaf: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a half-sheet pan with cooking spray and sprinkle with the breadcrumbs, which will absorb the juices during cooking.
  • Pour the milk over the bread in a bowl and allow it to soak up the milk. Place the ground beef, milk-soaked bread, Parmesan, seasoned salt, parsley and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Pour in the eggs. With clean hands, mix the ingredients until well combined.
  • Pat the mixture evenly into the prepared sheet pan, spreading all the way to the edges and corners.
  • Next, make the glaze: Whisk together the ketchup, brown sugar, balsamic vinegar and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl until well combined. Brush the mixture evenly over the top of the meatloaf. Sprinkle with the bacon.
  • Bake until the meat is cooked through and slightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven, then cut into squares and serve with the mashed potatoes. Garnish with the chopped parsley.

MINI SHEET PAN MEAT LOAF

Provided by inspired

Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 lb ground beef or ground beef (veal and pork)
1/2 medium Spanish onion (finely chopped)
1 whole egg
2-3 slices stale day old baguette or burger buns
1 tbspn Worcestershire sauce
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Gather all ingredients before starting recipe.
  • Pre heat oven to 375°
  • Soak bread under running water, squeezing the water out of the bread. When the bread has been soaked and the water squeezed out, add to a mixing bowl.
  • Combine remaining meat loaf ingredients in the same medium mixing bowl. Using your hands, combine all of the ingredients to make sure that they are evenly distributed and well blended.
  • Spread the meat loaf mixture on the mini sheet pan, leveling it so that it has the same thickness throughout.
  • Top the meatloaf with my prepared BBQ Sauce for Ribs, or another prepared BBQ sauce.
  • Bake in a pre heated oven for 45 minutes, or until the meat loaf is bubbling and the topping has nicely browned.
  • Serve with Homemade Mash Potatoes and canned peas.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of ground meats: Try using a combination of ground beef, pork, and veal for a richer flavor. You can also use ground turkey or chicken for a healthier option.
  • Add vegetables to the meatloaf mixture: This will help to add moisture and flavor. Try adding finely diced carrots, celery, onions, or zucchini.
  • Use a flavorful glaze: This will help to give the meatloaf a nice crust and extra flavor. Try using a glaze made with ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, or BBQ sauce.
  • Don't overcook the meatloaf: The internal temperature should reach 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 165 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 170 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: This will help to keep the juices in the meatloaf and prevent it from falling apart.
