Time 2h25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 pounds 80/20 ground beef
1 pound pork sausage, meat removed from casings
2 eggs
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
One 32-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
2 teaspoons dried thyme leaves
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
5 cloves garlic
1 yellow onion
1 Anaheim chile
1/2 red onion
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup tomato paste
1/4 cup yellow mustard
Kosher salt and ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the meatloaf: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place beef, sausage, eggs and panko in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • Place tomatoes, vinegar, Worcestershire, oregano, pepper, thyme, kosher salt, seasoning salt, garlic, yellow onion, chile and red onion in a high-powered blender and puree. Reserve half of this mixture for the tomato gravy. Pour the remaining half into the mixing bowl with the meat. Mix the meat really well with your hands until the meatloaf mixture is all the same color.
  • Pack the meatloaf mixture into a 6-by-11-inch pan (or something similar). Place pan on a baking sheet to catch any fat that spills out during cooking. Bake the meatloaf until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 155 degrees F, 1 hour 30 minutes. Let meatloaf rest for 10 minutes, then pour the fat out of the pan.
  • For the tomato gravy: Meanwhile, whisk together ketchup, tomato paste, mustard and reserved vegetable mix in a saucepan. Place over medium heat and bring up to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, then simmer, stirring every couple of minutes, for 30 minutes. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve the tomato gravy with your finished meatloaf! Most importantly, enjoy with friends and family!

CREOLE MEATLOAF WITH TOMATO GRAVY RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Creole Meatloaf with Tomato Gravy Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by kimvess

Number Of Ingredients 19

1-1/2 pounds of very lean ground beef*
1 tablespoon of butter
1 medium onion, chopped fine
1/2 cup of green bell pepper, chopped fine
1 stalk (rib) of celery, chopped fine
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1/4 cup of canola oil
2 tablespoons of all purpose flour (for the roux)
1 (15 ounce) can of tomato sauce
1 can of water
1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup of evaporated milk
1 large egg
1/2 cup of seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon of freshly cracked black pepper
Pinch of cayenne
Additional flour, for coating
1 tablespoon of canola oil, for browning

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the ground beef in a large bowl; set aside. Heat the butter over medium and cook the onion, bell pepper and celery until tender; add the garlic, cook for another minute, transfer to a plate to cool. Wipe out the skillet, and add the 1/4 cup of canola oil. Heat over medium high heat and stir in the flour. Cook and stir until it is browned, remove from the heat, and let cool slightly. Slowly whisk in the tomato sauce, water and Worcestershire and return to the heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Whisk together the milk and egg; stir in the bread crumbs and add that mixture to the ground beef. Add the salt, pepper, cayenne and cooked veggies; mix gently and shape into a loaf. The mixture should be firm. If it is breaking apart, return to the bowl and additional bread crumbs until it holds together. In a large, oven safe skillet, heat the tablespoon of oil over medium high heat. Carefully transfer the meatloaf to the skillet and sear on all sides, turning carefully. Pat any cracks that form back together. Note: You can skip the searing process if you prefer. Once all sides have browned, pour the tomato gravy over the meatloaf and transfer the entire skillet to a 350 degree F oven for about 1 hour, basting occasionally. When an instant read thermometer reads 160 degrees F the meatloaf is done. Allow to sit for about 10 to 15 minutes before slicing. Serve slices with a bit of the tomato gravy spooned over the top. Cook's Notes: This works best with an extra lean ground beef, so don't be tempted to try a higher fat ground beef because it just won't hold together for the searing process

Tips:

  • Use a combination of ground beef and ground pork. This will give your meatloaf a more flavorful and moist texture.
  • Add some vegetables to your meatloaf. This will help to keep it moist and add some extra flavor. Grated vegetables like carrots, celery, and onions are all good choices.
  • Use a flavorful breadcrumb mixture. This will help to bind the meatloaf together and add some extra flavor. You can use plain breadcrumbs, or you can add some herbs, spices, or grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture. Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough. Just mix the ingredients until they are well combined.
  • Cook the meatloaf in a loaf pan. This will help to keep the meatloaf moist and prevent it from falling apart.
  • Baste the meatloaf with the tomato gravy during cooking. This will help to keep it moist and flavorful.
  • Let the meatloaf rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will help to keep the juices from running out.

Conclusion:

Meatloaf is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and always a hit with the family. This recipe for meatloaf with tomato gravy is a great place to start if you're new to making meatloaf. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, you'll be able to make a delicious and flavorful meatloaf that everyone will love.
