0:48
right come on let's make a
0:51
meatloaf now I'm going to show you my
0:53
version of a rustic meatloaf or you can
0:55
even make your own homemade recipe if
0:58
you would like we're going to start with
1:00
one pound of ground beef and a large
1:03
mixing bowl to that we're going to crack
1:06
in two
1:15
eggs these are the large size
1:18
eggs we're going to add in one cup of
1:21
panko
1:23
breadcrumbs or just regular breadcrumbs
1:25
if that's what you have we're going to
1:28
add in a medium medium yellow onion that
1:31
we've diced now this recipe comes out of
1:35
my recipe blog Katherine plates.com and
1:38
it's The Rustic homemade meatloaf I'm
1:41
doing half of that recipe for our
1:42
meatloaf
1:44
today so we're going to be adding in
1:46
half a cup of
1:50
milk we're going to put in some Parmesan
1:54
cheese about 1/4 of a
1:57
cup and then we're going to start
1:59
seasoning up
2:01
about an eth of a cup of some dried
2:09
parsley give it a nice color in there
2:11
too a little
2:14
freshness some garlic
2:16
powder about a/ quar of a
2:19
teaspoon now my recipe calls for garlic
2:22
salt but I'm going to put the garlic
2:23
powder and then add in some
2:26
salt we like the crunchy salt
2:30
it's Celtic salt crunchy salt I call it
2:33
crunchy salt some black pepper about an
2:36
eighth of a teaspoon of the black
2:39
pepper I'm going to put on my kitchen
2:41
gloves food safe and we're going to mix
2:45
this
2:49
up okay we're going to take our mixture
2:51
and we're going to place it into a
2:53
baking dish I'm using a 9x 5x 3 in or
2:59
you can free form this onto a baking
3:02
sheet
3:04
pan and make sure it's about 3 in thick
3:07
all the way around nice and
3:10
even now this recipe also calls for a
3:13
topping but I'm not going to do that
3:14
because we're going to be making
3:16
meatloaf sandwiches with this and we got
3:19
a special sauce we're going to be doing
3:20
for that we're going to place this in
3:23
the oven that's been preheated at 350°
3:26
for 45 minutes to 1 hour just give it a
3:29
check on the inside with an internal
3:31
thermometer should read over
3:35
165° now when the meatloaf came out of
3:38
the oven I let it rest for quite a while
3:41
to kind of cool down somewhat in the
3:43
dish I wrapped it with foil and I put it
3:46
in the refrigerator overnight so I'm
3:49
just going to take a knife just go along
3:52
the edges of
3:54
it oh yeah did you hear that
4:02
there we go that's what you want a nice
4:04
formed
4:08
meatloaf we're going to cut this about
4:10
3/4 to 1 in
4:15
thick all right we're going to cut it
4:17
right here make nice
4:25
slices I'm going to do about four
4:35
okay let's talk about the pan that we're
4:36
going to fry our meatloaf in we are
4:38
going to put a sauce on it while it's
4:41
cooking and it's going to get kind of
4:43
sticky in there so you want to make sure
4:45
that you are using a very good nonstick
4:47
cooking pan we're going to add little
4:51
bit of cooking
4:52
oil olive oil avocado oil whatever you
4:56
like we're just going to cover the
4:59
bottom um the very light
5:03
coating of the oil need to put it on a
5:06
medium high
5:08
heat start heating up the oil you want
5:11
it nice and hot that way the meatloaf
5:14
can get a nice sear on it so we're going
5:17
to look for a shimmer in the oil here
5:20
make sure it's nice and hot I hear
5:23
something happening in there let's go
5:24
ahead and take our meatloaf
5:26
slices we're going to lay them down
5:39
we're going to get these nice and crispy
5:41
on the bottom side of it and heated
5:44
about halfway through the meatloaf
5:46
that'll finish kind of cooking the pink
5:47
out of
5:49
there now while that's happening we're
5:52
going to slather
5:54
on some barbecue sauce whatever flavor
5:58
you like we're using a sweet and spicy I
6:01
love this flavor it's not as spicy as
6:03
you think but it's got a good
6:05
flavor so I'm going
6:10
to pour it on on each
6:15
slice and we'll take a
6:18
brush slather it
6:21
on now the barbecue sauce has sugars in
6:24
it so when we flip it over it's going to
6:27
get really caramelized
6:30
so be careful how much you put on
6:32
here fried meatloaf sandwiches used to
6:35
be the thing back in the day in diners I
6:37
don't know if you can find them
6:39
anymore but we went to a diner called
6:42
Galaxy Diner in
6:44
Arizona and they did not have fried
6:47
meatloaf sandwiches on their menu they
6:49
had like meatloaf mashed potatoes and
6:51
that for your classic meal your plate
6:54
but not fried meatloaf sandwiches so my
6:57
husband's excited for this one here
7:00

7:01

7:04
over smells

7:16
you want it to set in your refrigerator
7:18
overnight there we
7:25
go now we are going to add a little
7:28
barbecue sauce to that side
7:31

7:38
