LOVED meatloaf dinners growing up… and even more so the meatloaf sandwiches the next day…. A childhood memory jewel

[@shermaynebrown5165]

A seriously underrated childhood experience!

Yes!!! The cold meatloaf sandwiches the next day are so good!😋

I’ve been coming out of a deep depressive episode and struggling to cook nice things for myself - your videos have helped me so much. They’ve reminded me of the love that goes into cooking and the self care and self love that can come from cooking yourself a nutritious carefully prepared meal. Thank you xxxx

[@arribaficationwineho32]

Freeze it in small portions for those days cook might not want to cook. I love a meatloaf sandwich!

Meatloaf gets a bad rap from generations of poorly made hunks of rubber. “Meatloaf” can be anything you want it to be. It is basically just a giant meatball, and it’s a blank canvas for you to turn into whatever work of art you want. I’ve never liked the ketchup/mustard mixes as a glaze. What I like is a hickory BBQ sauce mixed with some chili oil. The possibilities are limitless.

[@rhianlewis2273]

I agree! I love meatloaf! I'm Cajun and my grandpa always made it with a brown gravy instead of with Ketchup. Lots of onions and garlic yisss lol

[@bensebaugh6017]

Totally agree, well almost because I love the old fashioned piquant sauce. Dry mustard in a little cold water let sit for about thirty minutes to develop flavor, mixed into ketchup and brown sugar. Tabasco, Maggi, and Worcestershire in the meatloaf and thyme instead of oregano. Sides are almost always succotash and mashed potatoes with onions that cook in the grease along side the meatloaf. One other thing I picked up was coating the loaf in extra bread crumbs prior to baking, makes a crust and promotes browning but some people would rather not have a crust and have a uniform tender texture which is why I make it rounder, the overcooked edges are my fav and the middle cut for others.

[@copiohm]

Probably a hot take but I for one prefer a meatloaf denser than a brick of lead

[@CorsoLady]

My glaze is tomato sauce, apple cider vinegar and brown sugar.

[@jaisenfink5703]

tbh it gets a bad wrap from johnny test no cap

[@JW-el5cy]

My mom made hers with ketchup and oatmeal. I think the oatmeal filler is probably Scottish or English influence. She used to use it in place of breadcrumb or other fillers in most meat recipes.

[@jwm4ever]

Yes, my mom used oatmeal too. Green peppers and onion.

[@TriangleTrinity]

Damn, you’ve become one of the “I see, I click” KZbinrs for me. You’ve put so much swagger in my kitchen and given me a ton of confidence with cooking. So many good flavors to show my wife and son.

[@QuinnProductions27]

This meatloaf is truly something else, I’ve gotten better the more times I’ve made it. Made it for my brothers for the holidays and even after a nice dinner out with my mother, I watched my dad sneak into the fridge after and slowly fall in love after he ate it.

[@davidbalentine2110]

A top notch cooking channel. You have helped me with pasta, BBQ, and now the beloved MeatLoaf! The pasta tips and techniques alone allow me to make superior meals. Thank you. Not sure why, but your videos are easy to engage with, and encouraging. I’ll bet dinner at your home is well-attended. Peace ☮️.

[@hudsonja]

Something else you can add to this to intensify the flavors is make about a half cup or so extra of the glaze and actually incorporate it into the meat as your mixing everything, really ties it all together and brings some of that sweetness inside the loaf as well as outside

[@garrettbraun]

Looks sooooo good! Gonna make it tonight. Can't wait!

[@corrinnacorrinna5572]

Lol that is what my kids say about me, your mama probably uses what she has on hand & that's why it's never the same🤣

Sounds like an "inverted stuffed cabbage" (cabbage on the inside, meat on the outside); I'm sure the flavors still meld together well.

Ok it came out AMAZING!!! Thanks again ! Wife loved it ! You got the credit lol .. now we look to see what I try making next .. you're now my go to chef

[@moosemoosington1441]

In mine I add both sauteed and uncooked red/yellow/green bell pepper for flavor and texture purposes. On one hand I feel that sauteed bell pepper flavor can't be beat, and on the other I feel I need a bit of texture so I ended up doing both, and it adds an extra layer of depth to the dish, while maintaining that awesome flavor. I've also tried smoking a meatloaf this passed year with habeneros in place of bell peppers and bbq in place of tomato sauce and I'd say it was pretty awesome.

[@8535eddie]

OMG you’re a genius. This looks so delicious. Some of your techniques are so practical and spot on.

I love all meatloaf recipes but this one looks soooo good. Key is the glaze on all sides and loaf proportion. Mmmmmm! Thank you!

[@jwm4ever]

I can't wait to try this one. My Mom used oatmeal and added green peppers and onions and an egg to the meat mix. The V8 is interesting, and cooking on a cookie sheet, glazing it. Thanks so much. 💖

[@sandracory332]

I made this for dinner tonight and OH MY FREAKING GOD it is so delicious, I will be making it forever

[@lynncapella3837]

I just made this and I’m impressed! Love the meatloaf base especially with the red peppers and v8 juice. I did sauté my onions and peppers first and glad I did. They were perfectly cooked inside the meatloaf. I’m not a big glaze fan in general but it worked. Next time I would probably only make half the glaze and go lighter on the oregano. I think the meatloaf itself is so good that an aggressive glaze isn’t needed. Overall, I really enjoyed it and will be making it again!

I’ve had two very good kinds of meatloaf in my 50 years, one like you are preparing, and another fantastic recipe where you use golden mushroom soup as the topping and use basic meatloaf ingredients (breadcrumbs, chopped onion, garlic, egg, ground beef).

Alton Brown used a loaf pan, but only to shape it. Like it's done here, he cooks it "open" on a sheet tray. SIDE NOTE: I was fortunate to always have pretty good meatloaf growing up. My friends always think I'm weird because I like the stuff, so maybe I will make them this one for the holidays.

[@rgruenhaus]

I use Pepperidge Farm herb seasoned turkey stuffing to hold flavor and juices. My recipe is from the New Jersey Diner called the Yankee Tower! I use the meatloaf pans that have a lift that holds the loaf out of the fat drippings!

I’ve been watching you for a long time now, like you I’m Italian and its funny how our Italian recipes are almost exactly the same. My Italian (100% Calabrian) mother whom I’ve leaned so much from also makes Meatloaf. However, her’s is absolutely terrible, it’s so bad I won’t eat it. She’s 87yo now and till this day we laugh and laugh about how bad it is, she is a saint. Anyway, your Mothers Meatloaf looks fantastic, I can’t wait to try it. God bless brother…

I was trawling through the meatloaf recipes to try to figure out how much breadcrumbs to use.

I always had shaped meatloaf onto a baking pan. I didn’t know people used loaf pans. I totally agree you need the flat pan to get a good glaze, cooked surface, and fork ratio.
