PERFECT MEATLOAF PAN SET RECIPES

Steps:

• preheat oven to 350F
• In a medium-sized skillet, heat one tbsp olive oil, and brown diced onions, about 7 minutes. When brown, add chopped garlic and cook for two more minutes. Add tomato paste, fresh thyme, and Worcestershire sauce
• Mix in the chicken broth and cook the mixture for 3-4 minutes or until reduced to half the liquid. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
• In a mixing bowl, add ground beef, eggs, and breadcrumbs
• When cooled, add tomato-onion mixture to the bowl
• Mix everything very well. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and form the meat mixture into a loaf. (you can use a loaf pan too)
• Bake the meatloaf for 45-50 minutes, or until fully cooked. Make brown gravy while meatloaf is baking. (I used Mccormick brown gravy mix)

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.
• Meatloaf can be made 3 days ahead; wrap in foil and chill, or freeze for up to 3 months.
