Best 7 Monster Meatloaf Recipes

MONSTER SMOKED MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Mix salsa, eggs, onion, 1/4 cup barbeque sauce, 1/4 cup mustard, 1/4 cup ketchup, Parmesan cheese, sriracha sauce, soy sauce, malt vinegar, meatloaf seasoning mix, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper together in a large bowl. Stir beef and sausage into salsa mixture until thoroughly mixed. Add enough bread crumbs to bring meatloaf mixture together.
• Line a container with plastic wrap. Pack meatloaf mixture into the container. Chill until set, 3 to 4 hours.
• Preheat smoker to 250 degrees F (121 degrees C) according to manufacturer's directions.
• Line a wire rack with aluminum foil. Position in a cake pan lined with aluminum foil. Use plastic wrap to lift meatloaf onto the prepared wire rack.
• Smoke meatloaf until no longer pink in the center, about 3 hours.
• Combine barbeque glaze, 2 tablespoons barbeque sauce, 2 tablespoons mustard, 2 tablespoons ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl. Baste meatloaf with topping.
• Continue smoking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 185 degrees F (85 degrees C), 1 to 2 hours more.

MONSTER MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 (you can easily wait to do this until after the ingredients are mixed together, as it takes awhile to make the rolls).
• Spread a thin layer of spaghetti sauce over the bottom of two 10"x10"x3" pans. Corning or other glass wear works best, as metal tends to burn the bottom. Don't use too much sauce, you'll need it for later.
• Mix the vegetables, ground beef, garlic, eggs, and breadcrumbs in a very large bowl. Using your hands to do this is messy, but prevents the meat from breaking up too much while still getting it blended. Having a helper nearby to hand you stuff or pour stuff into the bowl for you makes for a much less messy kitchen in the end.
• Lay out a sheet of wax paper, roughly two feet long. Take half of the mixture and spread it out into a 9" by 18" rectangle. Try to keep the mixture fairly evenly spread out.
• Lay out half of the cheese in a layer on top of the mixture. Repeat with half of the meat slices. If you can manage to hold back four slices of the cheese, do so, but don't worry too much about it if you can't.
• Use the wax paper to roll up the meat until you have a 9" long loaf. Lift this into your pan by picking up the wax paper and rolling the loaf into a pan so that the seam is on the bottom. Fold the meat on the ends to seal off the loaf.
• Pour half of the remaining spaghetti sauce over the top and ends of the loaf. Make sure you cover the whole thing.
• Repeat this process for the other half of the mixture. You should have two rolls when you are done.
• Put a layer of foil down on the oven rack (these things do drip) and place both pans in if they'll fit. Cookie sheets work too, but generally aren't long enough.
• Bake at 300 degrees for 1.5 hours.
• If you have cheese slices left, lay them over the top in the last 10 minutes of baking.
• Allow to cool for as long as you can hold out, and then cut 1" slices and serve.
• Serves: In theory? About 16 people. In reality? You're lucky if 4 people don't demolish a single loaf by themselves.
• Some notes:.
• I use Italian or garlic and herb bread crumbs and spaghetti sauce. It adds flavor and allows you to cut back on the amount of salt, pepper, or Tony's you use. You can also chop herbs and include them in the mix.
• Sometimes the rolls will not cook all the way down. Cut down the middle and check the bottom layer. If it's still pink, cook the rolls for another 30 minutes.
• You can prevent the top from drying by scooping the juices over the top every 20 minutes or so. Or you can be a lazy bum like me and just scoop them over your slice when you serve up.
• Spatulas are your friend in getting the slice out of the pan. And while perfect slices look pretty on the plate, you're just going to tear it up anyways, so don't get all worked up over it.
• Yes, this creates two very large, very meaty rolls. Yes, it's possible (in theory) to cut the recipie in half. Make two anyways. Trust me, you're going to want it, and it tastes better on the second day anyways. If you're not sure you can eat it all, invite a couple of friends over.
• If you insist on a side dish, do a salad or green veggies. This is a meal in a slice, and you'll feel it when you're done. Side dishes are for when you actually want to be able to serve 16 people and not have them pout over the lack of seconds.

SOFT AND MOIST MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Place bread cubes in a large bowl. Beat egg and milk together in a small bowl, then pour over bread cubes. Let stand until bread absorbs milk, about 15 minutes. Mash and stir mixture until bread is in very small chunks. Add mustard, salt, pepper, basil, thyme, onion, celery and parsley. Mix well. Add ground beef and mix well. Turn mixture into an 8 x 5-inch loaf pan. Place in oven and bake for 55 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.;

YUMMY MUMMY MEATLOAF

Steps:

• To make the meatloaf:
• 1. Heat the oven to 350°F. Lightly oil a 10 x 13-inch (or 10-inch round) baking dish. Combine the meat, egg, onion, milk, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Shape the mixture into a 10-inch round dome and place it in the baking dish. Mix the 1/3 cup ketchup, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons prepared mustard in a small bowl until blended. Spread the mixture over the meatloaf. Bake for 1 hour. Transfer the meatloaf to a wire rack and let rest for 20 minutes.
• 2. Cook the pappardelle according to the package directions; drain and keep warm while meatloaf rests.
• To make the sauce:
• 1. Combine all the ingredients in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until bubbly and thickened, about 3 minutes. Keep warm until ready to serve.
• 2. Remove the meatloaf from the pan and place on a serving plate. Cut the mozzarella ball in half. Layer the pasta strands one by one over the meatloaf to look like a mummy's wrappings, adding the mozzarella and two olives for eyes as shown. Surround the meatloaf with more olives. Serve with the sauce on the side.

HALLOWEEN ZOMBIE MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and grease the foil.
• Mix ground beef, onion, crackers, milk, Cheddar cheese, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, and seasoned salt together in a bowl. Transfer beef mixture to the prepared baking sheet and form into a skull-shape, leaving holes for "eye sockets" and a "mouth". Place hard boiled egg halves into the "eye sockets", shaping the beef mixture around them to hold in place.
• Mix ketchup, brown sugar, and barbeque sauce together in a bowl until sauce is smooth. Spread 1/2 of the sauce onto the entire beef mixture, including the "eyes" and "mouth".
• Bake in preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 50 to 60. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
• Arrange the garlic pieces in the mouth for the "teeth". Brush the remaining sauce over the meatloaf or serve on the side.

CLASSIC MEATLOAF RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.

Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until aromatic, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring often, until the tomato paste turns deep red in color, about 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and let the onion mixture cool to room temperature.
• In a large bowl, stir together the panko and milk. Add the ground beef, eggs, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, salt, pepper, and the onion mixture and use your hands to combine. Do not overmix!
• Shape the beef mixture into a 10 x 5-inch loaf on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the top and sides with ketchup.
• Bake the meatloaf until the top is browned and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C), about 50 minutes.
• Slice and serve.

HALLOWEEN FEET LOAF RECIPE BY TASTY

• In a large bowl, combine the beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, mustard powder, cayenne, minced onion, eggs, bread crumbs, milk, parsley, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well until evenly combined.
• Split the meat mixture in half and place on the baking sheet. Shape each half into a "foot."
• Press up to form an ankle and hollow out the top to make room for "ankle bones." Add the halved onion, cut side up, to each divot. Cut 5 toes on each foot and add the reserved slivers of onion to make "toenails."
• Brush around the ankles with ketchup to look like "blood."
• Bake for 1 hour, until the meat is cooked through.
• Serve warm.
