Crock Pot All American Meatloaf Recipes

Steps:

• Combine ground beef, onion, bread crumbs, broth, egg, Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, parsley, and garlic powder in a bowl using your hands. Form into a loaf. Center the loaf in the bottom of a slow cooker, leaving room on the sides.
• Coat meatloaf with 1/4 cup ketchup and surround with potatoes and carrots. Cook on High, about 2 hours. Reduce heat setting to Low; cook until meatloaf is no longer pink in the center and vegetables are tender, 4 to 6 hours more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Steps:

• Line 4 1/2- to 5-quart slow cooker with foil. Spray foil with cooking spray.
• In large bowl, mix all ingredients except ketchup. Shape mixture into loaf, and place in center of slow cooker. Spread ketchup over top.
• Cover; cook on Low heat setting 3 to 4 hours or until meat thermometer inserted in center of loaf reads 160°F. Remove meatloaf from slow cooker to serving platter. Cut into pieces to serve.

Steps:

• Combine eggs, milk, bread crumbs, onion, salt, sage, and mushrooms in a large bowl. Crumble ground beef over mixture and stir well to combine. Shape into a round loaf; place in a 5-quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on Low until a meat thermometer reads 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), 5 to 6 hours.
• Whisk ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl; spoon sauce over meat loaf. Return to slow cooker and cook on Low until heated through, about 15 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.

Steps:

• Combine the meatloaf mix, panko, eggs, 3/4 cup ketchup, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, the scallions, parsley, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl; mix with your hands until just combined. Form into a 5-by-9-inch loaf.
• Transfer the meatloaf to a 6-quart slow cooker. Scatter the potatoes and carrots over and around the meatloaf. Pour in the chicken broth. Cover the slow cooker and cook 8 hours on low or 4 hours on high.
• When the meatloaf is done, skim off any excess fat from the juices in the slow cooker. Combine the remaining 1/2 cup ketchup, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce and the brown sugar in a small bowl, then whisk in 1/4 cup juices from the slow cooker. Brush the top of the meatloaf with the ketchup mixture. Cover the slow cooker and let the meatloaf rest, 10 minutes.
• Remove the meatloaf from the slow cooker and slice in half. Serve half with the vegetables; top with more parsley. Reserve the remaining half for Meatloaf Quesadillas.

Steps:

• 1. In a large plastic ziplock bag, combine all dry ingredients. Then, add the wet ingredients to the bag and mix thoroughly.
• 2. Add ground beef chuck until uniformly mixed. Try not to over mix. Form into a round loaf. (I usually refrigerate for a little while to firm up, but it's not necessary. In fact, you can make the loaf the day before and refrigerate until ready to use.)
• 3. Cut 2 lengths of aluminum foil approximately 29" long. Fold lengthwise 3 times. You will end up with two strips of foil approximately 3 1/2" x 29" long. Spray your crock pot with butter flavored cooking spray. I use a standard-size crock pot, approximately 9" across its round top. Place your two lengths of foil in the form of an "X" in the crock pot. This will act as a sling to lift the meatloaf out easily when it is done cooking. Spray foil with non-stick spray as well. If ends stick out of the top of the crock pot, simply fold them down into the pot.
• 4. Add meatloaf to crock pot. Cover and cook on low for 5-5 1/2 hours. About an hour before the meatloaf is done, combine all of sauce ingredients. Pour sauce on top of meatloaf 35-45 before the end of cooking time.
• 5. When meatloaf is done, lift carefully out of crock pot with your foil sling to a serving platter.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients, except the cheese and tomato paste.
• Shape half of the meat mixture into a loaf.
• Arrange 8 cheese strips on the meat, and top with the remaining meat, pressing the edges together to make a seal.
• Place in the Crock-Pot.
• Top with the tomato paste and the remaining cheese slices.
• Cover; cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours on Low or on High for 3 to 4 hours.
