DONNA'S MEATLOAF



Donna's Meatloaf image

My friend Donna makes the best meatloaf ever. The amount of chili powder seems excessive, but it really tastes great. You can use 1 tbsp if you are fearful, but believe me - it tastes better with the amount given if you use Spice Islands brand. If your brand is very strong, cut the amount in half. Here is her recipe.

Time 55m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 lbs lean ground beef
16 ounces canned creamed corn
1 large onion, diced
1 large tomatoes, chopped into about 1 inch chunks
1 green bell pepper, in 1/2 inch dice
3 -4 slices white bread, crusts removed & torn into small pieces (I use a very soft white bread for this)
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup ketchup, for meat mixture
4 teaspoons chili powder (I use Spice Islands)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 cup ketchup, for topping

Steps:

  • Mix creamed corn, eggs, chili powder, 1/2 cup ketchup, salt, pepper and bread together. Let sit while mixing meat, onion, tomato & bell pepper in large bowl.
  • Add corn mixture to meat mixture.
  • Form into a large rectangular mound, about 2 to 3 inches high on a baking sheet with sides, to avoid dripping in oven.
  • Top with 3/4 cup ketchup.
  • Bake at 350°F for 40-45 minutes, or until cooked through and lightly browned.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon good olive oil
3 cups chopped yellow onions (3 onions)
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup canned chicken stock or broth
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 1/2 pounds ground chuck (81 percent lean)
1/2 cup plain dry bread crumbs (recommended: Progresso)
2 extra-large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup ketchup (recommended: Heinz)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan. Add the onions, thyme, salt, and pepper and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, until the onions are translucent but not brown. Off the heat, add the Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and tomato paste. Allow to cool slightly.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground chuck, onion mixture, bread crumbs, and eggs, and mix lightly with a fork. Don't mash or the meat loaf will be dense. Shape the mixture into a rectangular loaf on a sheet pan covered with parchment paper. Spread the ketchup evenly on top. Bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F and the meat loaf is cooked through. (A pan of hot water in the oven, under the meat loaf, will keep the top from cracking.) Serve hot.
