  • Mold the meatloaf on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Whisk together the remaining ketchup and balsamic vinegar in a small bowl then brush the mixture over the entire loaf.
  • Bake the meatloaf for approximately 1 to 1 1/4 hours.
  • Remove from the oven and let rest 10 minutes before slicing.

Tips:

  • Use a combination of ground beef and ground pork for a more flavorful meatloaf. The pork adds fat and moisture to the beef, resulting in a tender and juicy meatloaf.
  • Use fresh bread crumbs instead of dry bread crumbs. Fresh bread crumbs will absorb more moisture and help to bind the meatloaf together.
  • Add some vegetables to the meatloaf mixture. Vegetables like chopped onions, carrots, and celery add flavor and texture to the meatloaf.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture. Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough.
  • Bake the meatloaf in a loaf pan lined with parchment paper. This will help to prevent the meatloaf from sticking to the pan.
  • Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the meatloaf to stay moist and juicy.

Conclusion:

Bobby Flay's Dad's Meatloaf is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser.
