GRANDMA'S FAMOUS MEATLOAF WITH SALTINES



Grandma's Famous Meatloaf with Saltines image

This is the recipe my grandmother used to make her meatloaf. Most notably it doesn't have any sort of sauce coating the top as is called for in many meatloaf recipes. My family enjoys it this way but I'm relatively certain that any standard meatloaf sauce would do if you want one.

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 meatloaf, 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb ground beef
2 eggs
salt (to taste)
pepper (to taste)
1 onion, chopped (Optional, I usually omit it or use a teaspoon of dried minced onion. You also don't need the whole o)
2 -3 tablespoons ketchup, heaping
1 tablespoon yellow mustard, heaping
1 cup saltine crumbs, crushed. (This is usually most of one sleeve of saltines.)

Steps:

  • Mix all together; I generally use my hands.
  • Form mixture into a loaf shape.
  • Put in a baking dish (I use a pie plate).
  • Bake at 350 for 1 hour.
  • NOTE: I always put a little water in my pan. I've never done it any other way, so I don't know what would result if you don't.

Olive oil for brushing
30 saltine crackers
2 1/2 pounds ground beef (85 percent lean)
1 large yellow onion (10 ounces)
1 large carrot (5 ounces)
2 medium cloves garlic
1/2 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 large eggs
1 cup ketchup, divided
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Place saltines in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade; pulse until fine crumbs form. You should have about 1 cup crumbs. Transfer to a large bowl and add ground beef.
  • On the large holes of a box grater, grate carrot (should measure 1 cup grated) and onion (about 2/3 cup grated). Drain excess juice from onion. Add carrot and onion to meat mixture, then grate garlic on the fine holes of the grater (1 teaspoon). Add to bowl along with parsley, eggs, 1/2 cup ketchup, Worcestershire, 1 tablespoon Dijon, salt and pepper. Use hands to combine thoroughly. Transfer to prepared loaf pan.
  • Combine remaining 1/2 cup ketchup, 1 tablespoon Dijon and brown sugar in a small bowl. Stir until smooth and no sugar lumps remain.
  • Spread mixture evenly over top of meatloaf. Place in oven, atop wire rack and bake until a meat thermometer inserted into the center reads 160 degrees, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Tent with foil if top begins to brown too quickly. Remove from oven and let cool 1 hour before slicing. Serve.
