Yield 8 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 pounds small red potatoes, quartered
1-1/2 cups beef stock, divided
3 slices white bread, torn into small pieces
2 large portobello mushrooms (about 6 ounces), cut into chunks
1 medium onion, cut into wedges
1 medium carrot, cut into chunks
1 celery rib, cut into chunks
3 garlic cloves, halved
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1-1/4 pounds ground beef
3/4 pound ground pork
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons salt, divided
1 teaspoon pepper, divided
GLAZE:
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons brown sugar
POTATOES:
3 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine potatoes and 1 cup stock. Microwave, covered, on high just until softened, 12-15 minutes. Transfer mixture to a 6-qt. slow cooker. Combine bread and remaining stock in a large bowl; let stand until liquid is absorbed. , Meanwhile, pulse mushrooms, onion, carrot, celery and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. Add vegetable mixture, eggs, beef, pork, Worcestershire sauce, 1-1/4 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper to bread mixture; mix lightly but thoroughly. Place meat mixture on an 18x12-in. piece of heavy-duty foil; shape into a 10x6-in. oval loaf. Lifting with foil, place in slow cooker on top of potatoes; press foil up sides and over edges of slow cooker, creating a bowl to contain meat loaf juices. Mix together glaze ingredients; spread over loaf., Cook, covered, on low until a thermometer reads 160°, 4-5 hours. Using a turkey baster, remove and discard liquid contained in foil; lifting with foil, remove meat loaf to a platter (or carefully remove meat loaf using foil, draining liquid into a small bowl). Let stand 10 minutes before cutting., Drain potatoes, reserving cooking liquid; transfer potatoes to a large bowl. Mash, gradually adding butter, remaining salt and pepper and enough reserved cooking liquid to reach desired consistency. Serve with meat loaf.

This dish was a bit too heavy for my taste. The meatloaf was dense and the potatoes were very rich.

I love meatloaf and mashed potatoes, so I was excited to try this recipe. The meatloaf was good, but the potatoes were a bit bland. I'll try adding some more seasonings next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my meatloaf turned out dry and the potatoes were lumpy. I'll have to try this recipe again.

I've never tried red mashed potatoes before, but they were so good! The meatloaf was also delicious, but the potatoes really stole the show.
