Are you more likely to use ground beef or turkey in meatloaf?

This meatloaf was very bland. Ketchup was good so I made more just to give the meat some flavor. Definitely could use some more seasonings.

Made this today using ground turkey instead of beef. It turned out AMAZING. I was little weary about the ketchup but that was also excellent!!!

also I didn’t print out the pages, and saved a tree! I followed the recipe on my phone instead! 👍🏻

delish never has the calories, carbs etc.
  They need a printer version for a 1 page printout for us cooks.

This easy meatloaf uses ground beef, ground turkey, and onion soup mix for a tasty, flavorful slow cooker meal!

Slow Cooker Meatloaf

eggs (beaten)

bread crumbs

oz packet dry onion soup mix

lb raw 95% lean ground beef

lb turkey breast

In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, milk, bread crumbs, onion soup mix and sage and stir or whisk together until well combined. Add the ground beef and ground turkey and mix together (I recommend using your hands) until thoroughly combined. Transfer the meat mixture to a cutting board or other clean, dry surface and form into a loaf that will fit in your slow cooker without touching the sides. If you prefer, you can place a long, wide strip of aluminum foil into your slow cooker at this point before adding the meatloaf to help you lift it out at the end (I just used two spatulas to lift mine out).

Add your meatloaf to the slow cooker and cover. Cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours until fully cooked. Remove the cooked meatloaf to a cutting board or serving platter. Spread the ketchup over the top of the meatloaf and slice into 12 even slices.

This easy Meatloaf recipe is flavorful and moist, made with basic pantry ingredients and baked with the most delicious meatloaf sauce on top.

Remove meatloaf from oven and spread sauce on top. Return to oven for 10-20 minutes or until cooked through (160 degrees F).

Make the Meatloaf

I’ve made this meatloaf a few times. It’s awesome. My version is half ground beef, half ground pork. I’ve always liked ground pork in meatloaf. The BEST!

Yes I’ve made this  several times always delicious! Love the glaze on top,! 
Yummy ! It’s definitely my go to for meatloaf !

Excellent recipe. I finally have a “keeper” recipe for meatloaf! Thanks so much

I can't even tell you how many times I've made this recipe. It's become my standard! It turns out great every time!

Best ever meatloaf recipe!!! Even my 6 year old LICES it and requests I make sure I have plenty for her!!

My family has always “liked” my meatloaf but after trying this recipe they LOVE it now. I make it at least once a month if not more often. I always made mine in a loaf pan in the past, but I really like the rack method. Never thought of doing that before. Thank you!

Tried recipe an did a few weeks an it turned out awesome. I used panko bread crumbs, no eggs, upped milk to 1/3rd cup, it takes 50 minutes at 375 ,add 15 more minutes when you apply topping sauce.

My meatloaf recipe needed something so I tried this one. I’m making it for the second time right now because it was so delicious!!! I have always made my own barbecue sauce ( same as yours ) and now to use it as a meatloaf topping was phenomenal. Awesome recipe!!

tried  both turkey  and beef meatloaf recipes... both were wonderful. I added mince jalapano  to both ... I do that  with everything.. and seems to give  a nice little kick... Your recipes are so nicely organized and with easy make sense directions....! thank !!...

I am not a huge meatloaf person but tried this out because my husband loves meatloaf. It was DELICIOUS I was pleasantly surprised this is one of my favorite dishes!

This was absolutely the best meatloaf recipe I have ever made!  Found a keeper!  The glaze was super delicious!

This is the best meatloaf recipe ever! It’s tender, moist and flavorful with the most delicious glaze. This easy meatloaf recipe is a classic that your whole family will love. Watch the video and follow our step-by-step instructions to learn how to make meatloaf.

Mix up this easy meatloaf recipe and double or triple the batch to have meatloaf on hand any night of the week with just minutes of hands-on time.

beef (or pork, lamb, venison, etc.)

breadcrumbs (or rolled oats)

whole bell pepper (chopped)

tomato sauce

Chop and prepare all ingredients ahead of time.

In a large bowl, combine ground beef, eggs, breadcrumbs, onion, bell pepper, tomato sauce, salt and Italian seasonings.

Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated (but don’t overmix or your meatloaf will turn out tough).

Label ziptop bags with the contents, date, and cooking directions.

Add uncooked meatloaf into the ziptop bag, seal and place in the freezer until ready to use.

The night before (or at least an hour prior to cooking dinner), remove the frozen meatloaf from the freezer and place it in the refrigerator (overnight), on the counter or in a sink of cool water. If left on the counter or in a sink of cool water, the meatloaf should defrost in about an hour because it’s so thin.

Once the meatloaf mixture is defrosted, preheat the oven to 350°F and grab a standard-size loaf pan and the ketchup (we love using our homemade ketchup).

Dump the meatloaf mixture into a loaf pan, pressing firmly to eliminate air pockets.

Brush the top with a generous layer of ketchup or other preferred sauce.

Slide the meatloaf into a preheated oven and bake at 350°F until the internal temperature of the meatloaf is 160°F.

Allow the meatloaf to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before cutting into it and serving.

Top with additional ketchup, if desired, and enjoy!

This Homemade Meatloaf recipe is the perfect blend of juicy ground beef, savory spices, and a hint of sweetness from the glaze. A succulent loaf that remains moist and flavorful, making it a comforting and satisfying meal for any occasion.

Classic Meatloaf Recipe

breadcrumbs (or gluten-free bread crumbs)

milk (can also use broth)

Dijon mustard

maple syrup

yellow onion, grated *see notes

garlic, grated or minced

smoked paprika

black pepper (to taste)

marjoram (or more oregano)

parsley,

In a large bowl, mix the bread crumbs, eggs, and milk (or broth). Let sit for 5 minutes.

To the bread crumb mixture add salt, tomato paste, Dijon, maple syrup, Worcestershire, grated onion, garlic, smoked paprika, black pepper, oregano, marjoram, and fresh parsley. Mix until thoroughly combined.

Add the ground meat mixing gently with your hands until just combined. (It will combine more easily if the meat has been out of the fridge for 20 minutes.) Do not over-mix. Mold into a loaf shape, roughly 8 x 4, and place in a pan with a little room around the edges, like a pyrex baking dish or a lined rimmed baking sheet, rather than packing it into a loaf pan. This helps the meatloaf brown evenly and caramelize on the edges.

Coat the top and sides of the meatloaf with 1/2 of the glaze. Bake for 40 minutes, remove from the oven and reglaze with what is remaining. Turn the oven up to 400° and bake 10-15 minutes more. Test the temperature (an internal instant read thermometer is handy here) it should register 155-160. 

I have yet to make a recipe from this site that isn’t delicious.

I truly appreciate how reliable your recipes are. This one was every bit as wonderful as all the others I’ve tried.

This was delicious! I made it with bison and everyone raved about it. I will add it to my winter recipe rotation!

This recipe produces a delicious  meatloaf. I have one caveat--I tried grating the onion on my cheese grater. I will never do it again! It did not work well and was not worth the trouble. Next time I will try using my food processor. We made the Quick Cheater Ketchup for the glaze and added sriracha. Delicious.We served our meatloaf with mashed potatoes for an excellent dinner.

This recipe looked excellent but our family doesn't eat meat so I thought I'd take inspiration from your walnut mushroom loaf recipe and try to come up with a substitution for the ground beef. I combined 1/4 walnuts, 1/4 cooked bulgar wheat, and 1/2 cooked barley (all processed to a ground beef texture) with 1t miso paste and a little oil and used that with the rest of the recipe as-is. It was delicious and we'll make it again as a vegetarian main dish! Thanks for sharing your recipes.

After making this last night, it is our new go-to meatloaf recipe! Fantastic, moist, flavorful. We may try horseradish instead of dijon next time.

My easy meatloaf recipe with few ingredients comes together with simple pantry staples and lean ground beef in just over 1 hour! It’s flavorful, moist, and juicy.

Easy Meatloaf with Few Ingredients

beef (80/20)

meatloaf seasoning (1.5 ounce)

Worcestershire

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large bowl combine the beef, seasonings, eggs, bread crumbs, milk, Worcestershire sauce and ketchup. Using your hands, work the ingredients until they are well combined.

Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray or line it with aluminum foil. Either mold the meatloaf with your hands or spray a loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray and mold the meatloaf in there. Then flip it over onto the baking sheet.

In a small bowl combine the topping ingredients of ketchup, brown sugar and worcestershire sauce. Use a brush or the back of a spoon to spread it on top of the meatloaf.

Bake the meatloaf for 50 minutes, until a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees F.

Once it is cooked allow it to sit for 5-10 minutes before cutting into it to keep the juices in.

This meatloaf recipe creates a moist and flavorful loaf with a sweet and tangy brown sugar and ketchup glaze. It's a comforting classic with a delicious twist.
