    1/4 cup diced parsley
    1 bell pepper diced
    1/2 large onion diced
    2 tbsps sour cream

Add bread crumbs a little at a time until the loaf takes shape. Place mixture in the fridge for 30 minutes.

I soooooo love meatloaf sandwiches & wish restaurants put it on their menus!!! It is so yummy & any meatloaf leftover would be used quickly! Working in hospitality field for 40 yrs all hotel restaurants utilize food prepared but not used( freeze it properly or incorporate it in other dishes... meatloaf in spaghetti sauce & someimes it gets tossed out but to keep food costs down, if anything prepared & leftover....”just like we do at home”, it is utilized ) so meatloaf sandwiches would be fantastic! I would even love to see meatloaf made up for just meatloaf sandwiches exclusively ha! for guaranteed they would sell!” So yummy! Great idea “BADGER” & this is a fantastic recipe! Yum!Yum! Yum!

  • @smokeyfrog210
    @smokeyfrog210 Před rokem +50

    A little tip to elevate this recipe is to sear it in the broiler first. When seared first it will allow the glaze to stick to the texture. After you're sauced up, slightly caramelize under broiler. Glaze again then bake until finished. Turns out with a nice glazed crust and juicy inside.

  • @hopefletcher7420
    @hopefletcher7420 Před rokem +4

    It looks great and the list of ingredients sounds like they make a tasty loaf but I have to comment on your mixing technique. You're not alone, most people do it wrong.
    First, use a cookie sheet, not a bowl.
    Second, break apart the meat(s) by hand into smaller pieces and spread them out, making sure you're blending the two meats.
    Third, in a separate bowl thoroughly combine all the other ingredients except the breadcrumbs. Then pour the mixture over the meat.
    Fourth, sprinkle the crumbs over the meat and wet stuff and *then* gently work through to combine.
    Then chill, form into loaf and bake.
    Your method means you're mixing the meat at least four times; my method mixes once. And the more you manhandle ground meat the tougher it gets.
    Thanks for the new meatloaf recipe, I'll be trying it on the family.

    • @urbanurchin5930

    My family could not stop eating this. I made 2-5lb meatloaf’s. 😂 even day two they said it tasted bomb. I substituted bread crumbs for broken bread(my son loves actual bread in it). I can’t thank you enough. 👍🏾

    That looks amazing! I'm trying it tomorrow! The best thing about meatloaf is it can be paired with mashed taters and green beans as a dinner or leftovers for some amazing sandwiches.

    Just my opinion... Since I don't eat pork, I replace that with ground lamb with the beef. Secondly, I've used bread crumbs in the past, but to me, it makes the loaf "gritty", so I go back to old school and use crushed Saltine Crackers. I do cook my loaf in a glass, pyrex dish which still gives a great crush, but also keeps all those spiced juices absorbed into the loaf. Lastly, I just use Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce to candy the top. No need for mixing extra ingredients. Serve with xtra sauce if needed. Yet, essentially the same. Good stuff!

      Sweet Baby Ray’s is the best barbecue sauce ever made imho! I first saw it in my local grocery store, thought I’d give it a try and am I ever glad I did. (I buy the plain sauce as we have those who don’t like spicy or hot flavours; my son adds hot red pepper flakes to his own plate.) I prefer crushed saltine crackers in my meat loaf over bread crumbs but to each, her own. I’ve never tasted ground lamb before, I will have to give it a try. I enjoyed your comment, BrokenandRestored. Now I want to make meat loaf and mashed potatoes and gravy for supper tonight. 😊

    This was the absolute best and juiciest meatloaf recipe. I misplaced this recipe after moving.
    I am so glad I was able to relocate it. I work on a commercial boat in Alaska.
    These freeze beautifully. I have even made them into individual mini loaves, meatloaf meatballs, even stretched them out into the length of a bun for easy assembly and plenty seasoned glaze and crunch crust. This is recipe is definitely going in my keeper box.
