Meatloaf Recipe

Meat Loaf Is Comfort Food
A Best Restaurant Beef Recipe






meatloaf dinner








A Meatloaf Recipe is
thought to be old-fashioned by some people.

Most, however, refer to meatloaf as comfort food, especially when served with mashed potatoes and gravy.

So-called old-fashioned meals have always been served at my restaurant. In fact, after 9-11 my restaurant experienced increased demand for these comfort foods.

"Retro Diner" and "More Retro Diner" are fun cookbooks that contain many comfort food recipes most of us still enjoy eating today.


Meatloaf Recipe
A Best Restaurant Beef Recipe
Preparation time: 20 minutes. 10-12 servings.

Cooking Conversion Table

Ingredients for Meatloaf Recipe

  • 2 pounds ground chuck (not ground beef)
  • 4 ounces onions, finely chopped
  • 3 ounces Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 ounces ketchup
  • 2 cups soft bread crumbs
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2-4 slices bacon (medium to thick cut preferred)

    Instructions for Restaurant Meatloaf Recipe:

  • Combine and thoroughly mix all ingredients being careful to mix lightly (mixing too vigorously will cause the meatloaf to be tough)
  • Form one or two meat loaves and place in one or two loaf pans
  • Top each loaf with 2 slices of bacon
  • Bake in 350 degree F oven for about one hour and 10 minutes
  • Drain off fat
  • Let sit several minutes before slicing or refrigerate and slice cold

    (To reheat: place slices in covered skillet with a little chicken or beef stock over low heat until hot. Microwaving not recommended.)

    You're now ready to serve it with some potatoes (mashed or otherwise) and vegetables

    Any meatloaf remaining can be used in soup or spaghetti sauce or on sandwiches (also loved by my guests - see below).

    An option for this beef recipe: Top with tomato sauce or Marinara sauce or brown gravy to serve.

    Option #2: Divide your raw meat mixture into 6 ounce portions. Form each portion into a thick, oval patty and fry in a large skillet with a little oil to brown. Then drizzle with beef broth and finish in a 300 degree F oven on a sheet pan (about 30 minutes).

    Presto! You've got Salisbury steak for dinner!
