Here are some great recipes from this site for yummy meatloaves...

Slow cook your pork chops with a lid on the pan until the thickest part of the meat reaches 160 degrees. 

Meatloaf is nothing more than hamburg, peppers, onions, spice, and water formed into a shape you desire. Mix it together and set it in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight. The water will enhance the spice permeation and penetrate the meat resulting in a even distribution of flavors. Use enough water to make a very moist mixture..Flourman

 Thanks granna2 for your assistance, sounds great!

Replace the bread crumbs with old fashioned oat meal..same amount.  Cut the garlic salt and add fresh garlic and a tablespoon of ginger to add flavor depth.  I use three pounds of lean ground Kosher beef and use Kosher catsup on top with slices of raw onions and peppers and bake in the meatloaf pan with drain holes.  One can make of great gravy with tinned beef broth adding mushrooms and some of the reserved juice from the loaf.  No added calories and a bonus using mushrooms.

Two to three lbs of hamburger (leaner the better)

one tube of Ritz crackers

One sweet onion- chopped finely

One can Cambell's Vegetable Beef Soup

Two Eggs

Squirt of Ketchup

Johnnies Seasoning to taste

Grease glass or stainless 13X9 (fairly deep) with butter, after mixing all the ingredients in a bowl (using your hands is the best and most fun way of doing that to an even consistency, bake at 350 degrees for an hour or so if deep, 45 min and watch if pan is shallow. Last 10 min or so thin layer of ketchup and finish cooking. My mom made it this way and I can't find a better, more tasty recipe.

Hi celtics,

The recipe that my mother always used was very simple

2 pounds of ground beef      2 eggs    chop up a small bell pepper(green) chop a small onion  about a 1/4 cup of ketchup
about 1 tablespoon of horseradish (not the creamy stuff) and enough cracker crumbs to hold it all together.

Put in a loaf pan or a cassarole dish. Put a bit of ketchup on the top.
Bake at 375* for about 45 minutes. Or if you use a meat thermometer till it reaches well done.

Enjoy.

Your momand my mom have know each other that is the way my mom did it also

 This is the best Meatloaf ..

Ground Beef  (about 2 lbs )

Bread Crumbs (1/2 cup) can use plain or seasoned)

2 eggs

1 can Rotel  

Salt and pepper 

Mix together  form a loaf put on a deep baking dish bake at  350

Cover top with Ketchup after it has cooked for 15 minutes, cook until done cut into on back side to ck about 30 more minutes..The key is do not over cook it.....I used to serve this in my cafe People lined up for it and it was so easy.....

the way I was told to make meatloaf was to pre-heat the oven to 425-450 take 1-2 lbs. of hamburger,1 egg,spices as desired,onion if desired,and 1-3 cdups of oatmeal,and ketchup...mix them all together and then if you want an even tastier meatloaf add some bbq sauce or ketchup to the top and cook 45-60 minutes...if any more question please feel free to ask.

I couldn't agree more w/this poster because meatloaf should be made to your individual taste preferences. I like this recipe & have added a packet of any flavored Lipton's dry soup mixes, plus a mix of Worchestershire sauce, soy sauce or steak sauce. Have tried crackers, oatmeal & even potato chips as a binder, plus adding hot pepper or cheddar cheese. Just have fun w/it & tried things you like, but this is a good recipe to build on for your family.  Good luck! If you find one you really like, I'd love to know of it. Thanks!!

I need help making meatloaf but just an easy recepi please help me.

Hey celtics....You asked for help and you have answers. If celtics  fails to reply, don't waste your time folks. If someone else  needs help focus your attention elsewhere.
 

Hello Cetics,

This recipe is the way my mother taught me how to make simple meatloaf.

2lbs. of ground beef

2 large sized eggs

 A pinch of seasoning salt and pepper (and red crush peppers if you choose)

1/2 cup of all purpose flour/ bread crumbs (I have tried both -whatever is more convient for you economically)

1/2  chopped green bell pepper

ketchup (to garnish the top)

** Mix all ingredents together (except ketchup) 

** Place meatloaf into a square glass pan

** Bake for about 30-45 minutes in the oven on approx. 300-350 degress (depending on oven )

** About ten minutes before completion of meatloaf garnish meatlof with ketchup (just enough to cover the top)

ENJOY!!!!!

This type of meatloaf would probably take 5 minutes to prepare and 30 minutes to cook (35 minutes total).

(It also complements buttermilk mash potatoes and sweet peas)
