Nothing says classic comfort like Ina Garten's Meatloaf recipe from Barefoot Contessa on Food Network.

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon good olive oil
3 cups chopped yellow onions (3 onions)
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup canned chicken stock or broth
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 1/2 pounds ground chuck (81 percent lean)
1/2 cup plain dry bread crumbs (recommended: Progresso)
2 extra-large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup ketchup (recommended: Heinz)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan. Add the onions, thyme, salt, and pepper and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, until the onions are translucent but not brown. Off the heat, add the Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and tomato paste. Allow to cool slightly.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground chuck, onion mixture, bread crumbs, and eggs, and mix lightly with a fork. Don't mash or the meat loaf will be dense. Shape the mixture into a rectangular loaf on a sheet pan covered with parchment paper. Spread the ketchup evenly on top. Bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F and the meat loaf is cooked through. (A pan of hot water in the oven, under the meat loaf, will keep the top from cracking.) Serve hot.

ORIGINAL ANN LANDERS MEATLOAF



Original Ann Landers Meatloaf image

This is the original version my mom handed down to me and has been one of my family staples since the 70s. I occasionally add other ingredients such as bell pepper or fresh onions, or top with bacon or cheese slice triangles. Sometimes I substitute saltine cracker crumbs to give it a different texture. My favorite part is meatloaf sandwiches from the leftovers.

Ronald Reagan had his jelly beans, Poppy Bush had his pork rinds and Mitt Romney has his - meatloaf cakes? "Meatloaf cakes," Mr. Romney affirmed from the back of his charter plane as it idled on the tarmac in Ohio in March 2012, explaining to the traveling press corps the special birthday meal his wife prepares for him every year. The traditional birthday meal, Mr. and Mrs. Romney added, includes mashed potatoes, corn on the cob and carrots.

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 45m

Yield 6 small meatloaf cakes (3 to 6 servings).

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 pounds ground beef
4 slices bread, crumbled into small pieces, or 3/4 cup dried bread crumbs
1 large egg
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons seasoned salt
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice.

Steps:

  • For the meatloaf cakes: Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, crumbled bread or bread crumbs, egg, onion, lemon juice and seasoned salt. Mix lightly but thoroughly and shape into six small loaves. Space evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes; meanwhile, prepare the sauce.
  • For the sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, cloves and allspice. When the meatloaf cakes have baked for 15 minutes, brush each loaf with sauce and return to the oven. Continue to bake until the meatloaf cakes are 165 degrees in the center when tested with an instant-read thermometer, about 20 more minutes. If desired, serve with scalloped potatoes and steamed vegetables. Pass additional sauce separately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ground meat: For a classic meatloaf, a combination of ground beef and pork is a good choice. You can also use all beef or all pork, but the combination of the two meats gives the meatloaf a more flavorful and moist texture.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your meatloaf will be. Use fresh ground meat, fresh vegetables, and flavorful seasonings.
  • Mix the meatloaf gently: Overmixing the meatloaf will make it tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Shape the meatloaf into a loaf shape: This will help it cook evenly. You can also shape the meatloaf into a round or square shape, if you prefer.
  • Bake the meatloaf in a preheated oven: This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from drying out.
  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meatloaf and make it easier to slice.
  • Serve the meatloaf with your favorite sides: Mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and gravy are all classic sides for meatloaf.

Conclusion:

Meatloaf is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. There are many different ways to make meatloaf, so you can find a recipe that suits your taste. Whether you like it classic or with a twist, meatloaf is a delicious and satisfying meal that is perfect for any occasion.
