PEPPER-JACK MEATLOAF



Pepper-jack Meatloaf image

I had some leftover Pepper-Jack cheese from a picnic which we didn't use. My family will not eat this cheese on sandwiches or burger so I thought I'd try making a meat loaf with it. Oh my this was a good combination of ingredients!

Categories     Beef

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 lb 90% lean ground beef
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1/2 Tbsp chili powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp dried mexican oregano.
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 c plain dry bread crumbs
1/4 c rolled oats
1 small onion, grated
2 eggs, lightly beaten
5 slice pepper jack cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • 2. In large bowl, thoroughly combine all ingredients except cheese slices.
  • 3. Spray a 2-1/2-Quart Oval Casserole Dish or large loaf pan lightly with cooking spray. Turn meat mixture into casserole and mold into a loaf shape.
  • 4. Bake 1 hour then layer pepper-jack cheese over top and bake for another 10 minutes. Meatloaf should not be pink in center and the juices should show no pink color. Let stand 5 minutes; drain off any grease before slicing.

Tips:

  • Use a combination of ground meats. This will give your meatloaf a more complex flavor and texture. Ground beef and pork are a classic combo, but you could also try using ground turkey, lamb, or veal.
  • Don't overwork the meat. Overworking the meat will make it tough. Just mix the ingredients until they are evenly combined.
  • Season the meatloaf liberally. Don't be afraid to use a lot of seasonings. This will help to give your meatloaf a flavorful crust.
  • Use a flavorful breadcrumb mixture. The breadcrumb mixture is what will help to bind the meatloaf together and give it a moist texture. You can use any type of breadcrumb you like, but panko breadcrumbs are a good option because they are light and airy.
  • Add some vegetables to the meatloaf. This will help to add moisture and flavor to the meatloaf. Some good options include onions, carrots, celery, and bell peppers.
  • Use a variety of cheeses. This will give your meatloaf a more complex flavor and texture. Pepper Jack cheese is a good option because it has a nice spicy kick, but you could also use cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, or Parmesan cheese.
  • Don't overcook the meatloaf. Overcooking the meatloaf will make it dry and tough. The internal temperature of the meatloaf should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Conclusion:

Pepper Jack meatloaf is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. With a little planning and preparation, you can make a Pepper Jack meatloaf that will be the star of your next meal.
