Old fashioned meatloaf

Meatloaf is one of those things that can be reeeeally good or reeeeally NOT good. When it’s good, it’s medicinal. This is a good base recipe if you like your meatloaf sweet and tangy, meaty and moist. It slices like a dream hot or cold and makes a fab sandwich the next day. Sometimes I add bell pepper in it or on it. You can add any veg you like.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl combine the meat with the next 10 ingredients. I use my clean hands to stir my meat mixture. I fold it over and over itself until it just fully combines. Don’t over mix it.
- 2
In an iron skillet or glass baking dish shape your meat into an evenly shaped rectangle so it cooks evenly. My loaf usually rounds out a bit during baking. Slide it into the oven and bake uncovered 45 minutes.
- 3
In the meantime, make your ketchup mixture. Combine all the ingredients and whisk. After 45 minutes, take the loaf out of the oven and spoon a heavy layer on top of the meatloaf to the edges. Bake 15-20 minutes longer, uncovered.

Pull your meatloaf out of the oven and move it to a platter. Let it sit for about 5 minutes before slicing. I like extra sauce spooned over my slice.

My kids love when I make this and just can't get enough. I took my mom's recipe and jazzed it up a lot. I live in a humid environment so sometimes I need to add more or less breadcrumbs depending on the weather. I recommend using a serrated knife to cut it when finished, it helps to keep the bacon attached to the slices. Chin -
