MOMS MEATLOAF RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees
• In a small bowl mix together 1/4 cup of the ketchup and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, mix together and set aside for later basting.
• Throw 1 pound of ground beef 80/20 fat content into a big bowl. Break up into chunks and salt and pepper. Just give the salt shaker a couple of good shakes, and a little more with the pepper. If you like garlic shake in a bit of garlic powder, NOT garlic salt.
• Dice up ½ a medium onion and toss into the bowl.
• Squirt in ketchup, probably about ¼ cup to start.
• Shake in Worcestershire sauce until it just smells right, about 1 tablespoon. It's a personal preference with the amount. If you really have no idea how much to use then give the bottle a couple of good shakes to start.
• In a small bowl, lightly beat two eggs and mix into the ground beef mixture
• Pour in a ½ cup of plain bread crumbs.
• Use a wooden spoon to get everything mixed up nicely. Compress into a big ball.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and plop the meatloaf onto the lined baking sheet and mold the meatloaf into a rectangle.
• Put the meatloaf into the oven and bake for about 15 minutes then baste with the ketchup Worcestershire sauce. Continue cooking for a total of 60 minutes. Use a thermometer to check the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees to ensure it's fully cooked.
• I like a little crispy to the sides so I broil at the end for a couple of minutes. Watch it so you don't burn the top.

MY MOM'S MEATLOAF RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350*.
• In large bowl mix beef, chopped onions, bread and half of the milk with hands.
• Slowly add the remainder of the milk if needed - too much will make the mixture to runny and it won't form the loaf.
• Shape into loaf and place in a glass 8x8 or 9x13 baking dish, I add just a little water to the bottom of the pan.
• Bake at 350* for 45 min, cover the top of the loaf with the glaze and finish baking for 15-20 min longer.
• Let the loaf sit 10-15 min before slicing.
