MEATLOAF FOR A DINNER PARTY
Meatloaf is universally appealing. When properly made it's moist, holds it's shape when cut and presents well on the table. This meatloaf recipe is also made so it can be presented prettily on a circular tray or even cake plate with an attractive side dish in the center, and colorful garnish to set it off.

Steps:
- I use Durkee grill creations steak dust instead of the bouillon!
- In large bowl mix all ingredients except crackers until thoroughly blended. Crush crackers between hands until fine and mix.Can be fried or put under the broiler.
- It takes a little longer, but I mix the eggs and seasonings in the bottom of the bowl with a wisk before adding the meat and crackers.
- I broil mine so they are lower in fat.
- If frying, use low to medium heat and cook slowly for tender juicy burgers or hotter for a crispy outer shell my kids love!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
- Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and golden brown, about 7 minutes. 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.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose the Right Meat: Use a combination of ground beef and ground pork for a moist and flavorful meatloaf. You can also add ground turkey or lamb for a leaner option.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Always use fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices for the best flavor. Fresh breadcrumbs will also help to keep the meatloaf moist.
- Don't Overmix the Meat: Overmixing the meat can make the meatloaf tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Shape the Meatloaf Properly: Form the meatloaf into a loaf shape and place it in a baking dish. Make sure the meatloaf is not too thick or it will not cook evenly.
- Bake the Meatloaf at the Right Temperature: Bake the meatloaf at 350°F for 1 hour, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center reads 160°F.
- Let the Meatloaf Rest: Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the meatloaf to stay moist and prevent it from falling apart.
Conclusion:
Meatloaf is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious and flavorful meatloaf that your family and friends will love. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or a salad, and you have a complete and satisfying meal.
