Best 5 Bonnies Best Meatloaf Recipes

BONNIE'S KILLER MEATLOAF

Steps:

• 1. In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs, tomato paste, kitchen bouquet.
• 2. Add all the seasonings and spices.
• 3. Stir in peppers, onions and celery.
• 4. Add the ground meat and sage sausage. Mix well. Best mixed with your hands.
• 5. Stir in the croutons and mix well.
• 6. Form the loaf and place in a meatloaf pan.
• 7. "Frost" the top of the meatloaf with the leftover tomato paste as depicted in the photo.
• 8. Tent the meatloaf loosely. Bake meatloaf in a 350 degree, pre-heated oven for 1 1/2 hours or until it reaches an internal temperature of 175 degrees. (I use a meat thermometer.) Remove tin foil the last 15 minutes. Let meatloaf stand covered loosely for 15 minutes. Spritz with a couple of sprays of butter flavored kitchen spray to give it a glossy appearance, and this is how it looks.
• 9. Place the meatloaf on a platter and slice it to serve. You can serve it without gravy because it is so moist. That is the way I like it. The guys, of course, have to have their gravy! Enjoy!

THE BEST MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 inch loaf pan.
• Combine milk and soft bread crumbs in a small bowl and allow to soften, about 5 minutes.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, pepper, egg, 3 tablespoons steak sauce, chopped onion, and green bell pepper. Add bread crumb mixture, and mix with your hands until all ingredients are combined.
• Pat the the mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Brush the top with additional steak sauce.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour or until done. Allow to stand 5 minutes before slicing.

THE BEST MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
• Whisk the eggs, milk, Worcestershire sauce and 2 teaspoons salt in a large bowl until completely combined. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are tender and lightly golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add 3 tablespoons of the ketchup and cook until most of the moisture has evaporated and the mixture is thick and brick red colored, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the onions cool slightly. Then add them to the beaten eggs and mix to combine.
• Add the beef to the egg and onion mixture. Break up the meat with a fork or wooden spoon, and then mix to thoroughly combine; you don't want to see any lumps of raw beef. Add the panko and mix to combine. Stir the meat vigorously with a wooden spoon for about 7 seconds; it will become more homogenous and tackier.
• Transfer the meat to the prepared baking sheet and shape into a 9-by-5-inch loaf. Smooth the top and evenly spread the remaining ketchup over top. Bake for 5 minutes, and then reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees. Continue to bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf registers 150 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes. Allow the meatloaf to rest for 20 minutes before slicing.
