Leslie Brunis Meatloaf Recipe 435

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with foil; lightly grease. In a medium skillet, melt the butter. Add the onion and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, 8 minutes. In a small bowl, whisk the tomato sauce with the vinegar, brown sugar, mustard and Worcestershire. In another small bowl, dip the bread in the milk, then gently squeeze out the liquid. Transfer the bread to a large bowl and discard the milk. Add the onion, ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, salt, pepper and 1/4 cup of the tomato sauce and mix until just combined; transfer to the pan. Firmly pat the meat mixture into a 9-by-5-inch loaf; spread the remaining sauce over the top. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 160°. Let rest for 10 minutes; serve. Make Ahead The meatloaf can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a loaf pan.
• Place pork sausage, bread crumbs, onion, egg, and shallot in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Pour in buttermilk; mix thoroughly. Pat mixture gently into the prepared loaf pan; top with ketchup.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges are bubbling, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C). Cool for 5 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan. Add the onions, thyme, salt, and pepper and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, until the onions are translucent but not brown. Off the heat, add the Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and tomato paste. Allow to cool slightly.
• In a large bowl, combine the ground chuck, onion mixture, bread crumbs, and eggs, and mix lightly with a fork. Don't mash or the meat loaf will be dense. Shape the mixture into a rectangular loaf on a sheet pan covered with parchment paper. Spread the ketchup evenly on top. Bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F and the meat loaf is cooked through. (A pan of hot water in the oven, under the meat loaf, will keep the top from cracking.) Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°. Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with foil; lightly grease.
• In a medium skillet, melt the butter.
• Add the onion and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, 8 minutes.
• In a small bowl, whisk the tomato sauce with the vinegar, brown sugar, mustard and Worcestershire.
• In another small bowl, dip the bread in the milk, then gently squeeze out the liquid. Transfer the bread to a large bowl and discard the milk.
• Add the onion, ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, salt, pepper, and 1/4 cup of the tomato sauce and mix until just combined; transfer to the pan. Firmly pat the meat mixture into a 9x5inch loaf; spread the remaining sauce over the top.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place a skillet over medium heat, and melt butter. Add onion and salt to taste, and sauté until golden brown. Remove from heat, and set aside.
• In a mixing bowl, combine beef, pork, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, mustard, cracker crumbs and 1/4 cup applesauce. Add onion, and mix well. Gently press into a loaf pan 9 inches by 5 inches by 3 inches, and smooth top. Spread top with remaining 3 tablespoons applesauce, and lay bacon slices lengthwise over top. Sprinkle generously with black pepper.
• Bake until well browned on top and no longer pink in center, about 1 hour. Remove from oven, and carefully pour out juices that have accumulated in pan. Allow to sit for 5 to 10 minutes before removing from pan and slicing.

Steps:

• Position rack in center of oven; preheat to 350°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet or 13x9" shallow baking dish with foil. Soak breadcrumbs in milk in a large bowl until ready to use.
• Pulse onion, celery, and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. (Alternatively, you can finely chop by hand.)
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium. Add onion mixture, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in Worcestershire, and scrape into bowl with breadcrumb mixture. Add beef, pork, eggs, 1/4 cup ketchup, and remaining 1 1/4 tsp. salt and 1 tsp. pepper, then mix with your hands to combine.
• Form meatloaf mixture into a long, well-packed, approximately 5"-wide loaf shape on prepared baking sheet. Brush top of loaf with 1/4 cup ketchup. Bake meatloaf until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 155°F, 60-75 minutes. Let rest 15 minutes before slicing. Serve with more ketchup alongside.
• Do Ahead
• Meatloaf can be made 3 days ahead; wrap in foil and chill, or freeze for up to 3 months.
