Categories     Main Course

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds ground chuck
1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
1 cup + 1 tablespoon zesty bloody mary mix
1 egg
1 small onion, minced
1 small bell pepper, minced
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup ketchup

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Combine the bread crumbs and the cup of bloody mary mix in a small bowl and mix well, set aside until the bread crumbs have absorbed the liquid (3 to 5 minutes).
  • In a large bowl, combine the meat, moistened bread crumbs, egg, onion, bell pepper, garlic powder, pepper and salt. Mix until the ingredients are well incorporated, being cautious not to over mix. Pour the mixture into the baking dish and form into a loaf in the center of the dish.
  • In a small bowl, combine the ketchup and remaining 1 tablespoon of bloody mary mix and spread on top of the meatloaf. Bake uncovered for 50 to 60 minutes, or until cooked through. Allow to rest for about 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

MOM'S SECRET INGREDIENT MEATLOAF



Mom's Secret Ingredient Meatloaf image

My mother made the best meatloaf in town, but would never share her recipe saying it was just a basic meatloaf recipe with a "secret ingredient". Now all MY family and friends beg for this meatloaf, but only my daughter knows the secret ingredient -- now you will too. You will get raves on this one!

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 -2 1/2 lbs ground chuck
1 large egg
1 cup finely chopped onion (, or you can use 2-3 Tblp dried onion flakes if the kids object to actually seeing the onion)
1 cup milk
3 pieces bread, crumbed in food processor
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/3-1/2 cup Heinz Chili Sauce (NO SUBSTITUTION on this ingredient)
1/2 cup catsup
1/2 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese or 1/2 cup shredded monterey jack cheese

Steps:

  • Mix ground chuck with breadcrumbs.
  • (extra lean works well too).
  • Add salt,pepper and egg.
  • Mixing with you hands now, add the Heinz Chili Sauce and the milk.
  • Seperate the mixture in half and form 2 loaves.
  • They will both fit comfortably in a 13" by 9" pan.
  • Mix the topping together and spread on the top and the sides of the loaves.
  • Cook at 375 for one hour or 400 for 45 minutes.
  • Check for firmness.
  • Let rest for ten minutes before cutting.
  • Tips---------.
  • If you have stale bread you can lay 2 slices under each loaf and it will soak up the grease so your meatloaf is a bit leaner upon serving.
  • Also, you can use the Chili Sauce on top of the meatloaf instead of catsup.
  • This makes it spicier but my mother never did this because it would have given away her"Secret Ingredient" -- and the kids probably will like it better with catsup on top.
  • Enjoy!

MEATLOAF - FAMILY SECRET INGREDIENT



Meatloaf - Family Secret Ingredient image

This is my mom's recipe and we loved it so much. You can use a mixture of ground beef, veal and pork if desired. This is a slightly different meatloaf, than what most people are familiar with. After they taste it, they ask for the recipe. This makes a great leftover fried meatloaf sandwich. (Just a note: If my Mom or I make the meatloaf, it falls apart, if my Dad makes it, it stays together...so good luck with yours!)
