Savory Buttermilk Meatloaf image

This meatloaf recipe is very flavorful, and as the proverbial description goes, 'melts in your mouth.' As far as vegetables, I only used onions, but their sweetness, along with the simple brown sugar glaze, were a great counterpoint to the others flavors.

Time 2h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons butter
1 yellow onion, diced
2 ½ pounds ground chuck
1 cup dry bread crumbs
¾ cup buttermilk
½ cup ketchup
2 eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 ½ teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon hot sauce
½ teaspoon dried tarragon
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
¼ cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat.
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion in hot butter until soft and translucent, 6 to 7 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
  • Combine cooled onion, beef chuck, bread crumbs, buttermilk, ketchup, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, hot sauce, tarragon, and Italian seasoning in a bowl; mix together with a fork and let sit until breadcrumbs absorb moisture, about 10 minutes.
  • Turn meatloaf mixture out into the center of the prepared baking sheet and form into a 9x5-inch loaf.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. While meatloaf is baking, whisk brown sugar, mustard, and cider vinegar together in a small bowl. Spread brown sugar glaze over the top of the meatloaf and continue baking until no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

This was the best meatloaf I've ever had! It was so moist and flavorful, and the bacon added a delicious smoky flavor.

I've made this meatloaf several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The buttermilk makes it so moist and flavorful, and the bacon adds a nice touch of smokiness. I highly recommend this recipe!

This savory buttermilk meatloaf was a hit with my family! The buttermilk gave the meatloaf a moist and tender texture, and the combination of spices created a delicious flavor. I also loved the addition of the bacon, which added a smoky and salty fla
