BEST MEATLOAF RECIPES YOU NEED TO TRY!

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x5 loaf pan or line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a large mixing bowl, add the ground beef, quick oats, diced onion, eggs, meatloaf seasoning, and ketchup. Mix until just combined, do not over-mix.
• Transfer the meatloaf mixture into your prepared loaf pan then shape so that the loaf is mounded at the top. Or transfer the loaf mixture to your baking sheet and form it into a loaf approximately the same size as a loaf pan (9x5-inch).
• Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50 minutes, remove from the oven and coat with an additional 1/3 cup of ketchup or BBQ sauce if desired. Return to the oven and finish cooking for an additional 10-20 minutes. Your meatloaf is done when it has an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
• Remove from the oven when done, drain off the excess grease, and then allow your meatloaf to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

• Sauté onions in small skillet until translucent and let cool a bit.

(I put a piece of foil on a sheet pan, sprayed with non-stick cooking spray, and placed the loaf on it). Spread a little ketchup on top for garnish and bake uncovered for 1 hour - 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until done (ovens vary).
• Let rest for 5 min before slicing.

• 2. Put in baking dish. Mold in a shape.
• 3. On side make topping-mix together ketchup,mustard & sugar-make as little or as much as you want. I make enough to cover the whole top of the meatloaf. and I make it more sweet than the meatloaf.

DINER MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, break up the beef into small pieces, using a fork or spoon.
• Peel and finely chop the garlic. Peel the onion, and chop enough of the onion into small pieces to measure 3 tablespoons. Wrap remaining piece of onion, and refrigerate for another use. Add the garlic and onion to the beef.
• Tear the bread into small pieces and add to beef mixture.
• Add the milk, Worcestershire sauce, sage, salt, mustard, pepper and egg to the beef mixture. Mix with a fork, large spoon or your hands until the ingredients are well mixed.
• Place the beef mixture in an ungreased baking pan. Shape the mixture into an 8x4-inch loaf in the pan, then spread the ketchup over the top.
• Bake uncovered 50 to 60 minutes until meat and juices are no longer pink or until a meat thermometer inserted in the center of the loaf reads 160°F and center of loaf is no longer pink*. Let the loaf stand 5 minutes so it will be easier to remove from the pan. Remove loaf from pan and cut into slices.
