Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 piece, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lbs ground beef
1/2 red onion
1 1/2 cups quick oats
2 eggs
2 (4 ounce) cans tomato sauce
chili powder
garlic powder
onion powder
parsley
liquid smoke
Worcestershire sauce
2 cups ketchup
1 cup brown sugar

Steps:

  • Chop the onion then mix all the ingredients for the meat portion together, uncooked. All the seasonings should be eyeballed in -- just use your own knowledge of what tastes your family likes. Not too much of the liquid smoke or Worcestershire, but give a good few shakes of each. This really adds flavor. Mix together the ketchup and brown sugar for the topping and set aside.
  • Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes. Pull out the meatloaf and drain the excess juice from the pan. Put on the topping and bake for another 30 minutes. This goes very well with cheesy potatoes! Also, the leftovers can be used as meatloaf sandwiches, yummy!
  • ENJOY!

"WHAT YOU GOT" MEATLOAF ON THE GRILL



Provided by Michael Symon : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 cup ketchup
1/3 cup light brown sugar
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon apple cider or sherry vinegar
Freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds ground meat (I'm using beef)
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 cup peeled and grated onion (I'm using yellow)
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves, finely chopped
1 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon spice mix (I'm using Old Bay)
5 shakes Worcestershire sauce
2 large eggs, beaten
1 head roasted garlic, mashed, recipe follows
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces smoked sausage (I'm using kielbasa), optional
3 heads garlic
3 teaspoons olive oil

Steps:

  • For the glaze: In a medium bowl, add the ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Whisk to combine and set aside.
  • For the meatloaf: Preheat the oven or grill to 375 degrees F. If using a gas grill, set to medium heat on one side and low on the other side. If using a charcoal grill, bank medium-hot coals on one side of the grill.
  • Prepare your pan: Line a baking sheet with foil if using an oven. If grilling, gather a sturdy grilling tray, disposable foil pan or some sheets of foil.
  • In a large bowl, add the meat, breadcrumbs, onion, parsley, cayenne, paprika, Old Bay, Worcestershire sauce, eggs and garlic. Mix the ingredients thoroughly and season well with salt and pepper.
  • Put the meat mixture on the prepared tray. Form the meat into a loaf around the kielbasa, if using, so the sausage is sealed inside. Spread the glaze over the top. Bake in the oven or on the cooler side of the grill, covered, until cooked through and the glaze is sticky, about 1 hour.
  • Serve with potatoes or a side salad or use on a sandwich.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Remove the outer papery skin from the garlic, then cut 1/4 inch off the top of each head. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of olive oil over each head of garlic, then wrap each head in foil. Seal the foil packets and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Roast until completely soft and caramelized, about 1 hour. Allow to cool slightly.
  • When cool enough to handle, squeeze the garlic cloves from the skin into a medium bowl and mash with a fork into a paste.

CHEF JOHN'S MEATBALL-INSPIRED MEATLOAF



Chef John's Meatball-Inspired Meatloaf image

The main point of this Italian meatball-inspired meatloaf is to show you what happens when you make meatloaf like your grandparents did. During the Great Depression, this type of dish was a popular strategy for stretching what little meat you had into as filling a meal as possible.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Meatloaf Recipes

Time 2h

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 onion, diced
salt to taste
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ cups very dry white bread crumbs
1 ½ cups milk
2 pounds ground chuck
½ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 ounces grated Parmesan cheese
2 large eggs, beaten
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
3 cups tomato sauce, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Heat olive oil and butter together in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion with a pinch of salt in hot oil and butter until onion is golden brown and soft, 5 to 10 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove skillet from heat and cool onion mixture to room temperature.
  • Place bread crumbs in a large bowl. Add milk and stir with a fork until combined. Let sit until all of the milk is absorbed into the breadcrumbs, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Combine ground chuck, cooled onion mixture, parsley, Parmesan cheese, eggs, 2 teaspoons salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a bowl. Grab a handful of breadcrumbs and squeeze very gently to remove excess milk. Repeat with remaining breadcrumbs, transfer breadcrumbs to ground chuck mixture, and discard excess milk. Stir ground chuck mixture until evenly combined.
  • Turn chuck mixture out into prepared baking dish, and shape meat into a 3x4x10-inch meatloaf. Pour tomato sauce over the loaf and into the bottom of the dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Let meatloaf rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
