Yet another of dad's recipes. This is a slightly different meatloaf, than what most people are familiar with. Excellent served with rice, potatoes or broad pasta & fresh peas.

MEATLOAF
1 large egg
1 small onion, finely chopped
6 baby carrots, grated (or one whole carrot) optional
1/2 c dill pickle juice
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1 clove minced garlic
1 tsp dijon mustard
1 c saltine cracker crumbs
1 1/2 lb lean ground beef
TOPPING
1/4 c dill pickles, chopped (or use dill pickle relish)
1/4 c ketchup
2 Tbsp water
3 tsp brown sugar
1/2 tsp worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. Using a large mixing bowl, beat the egg. Stir in onion, carrot, pickle juice, garlic, mustard, and pepper. Add cracker crumbs and mix. Add the ground beef and mix using your hands until all ingredients are evenly blended.
  • 3. Form into a rectangular loaf approxiimately 3-4" high. Put the meatloaf on a wire cooking rack then place into in a 9"x13" oven-safe pan. The rack allows any excess fat to drain from the meat. Indent the top of the meatloaf a bit using your fingers. This helps keep the topping from running off.
  • 4. Make the topping by combining chopped pickles, ketchup, water, brown sugar, and worcestershire sauce. Pour on top of the meatloaf. Avoid drizzling down the sides, as it may burn in the bottom of the pan.
  • 5. Bake 1 hour or until no longer pink in center. Internal temp should be at least 160 degrees. Cover meatloaf with foil and let it rest 4-5 minutes. Slice and serve. We enjoy this with smashed potatoes, buttered peas, and a glass of red wine.

Eryk's Dill Pickle Meatloaf image

When my son Eryk was a little boy, he used to ask me to make this at least once a week. He is now 22 and he still says it's his favorite meat loaf. I usually serve with baked potatoes and a green salad.
