Peppered
Meat Loaf Recipe
I
came up with this easy dinner one day while experimenting in the kitchen.
Everyone who tries it, loves it!
Ingredients
:
3
large baking potatoes, peeled and quartered lengthwise
2
large eggs, lightly beaten
1
large onion, chopped
1
can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
3/4
cup crushed saltines
1/2
cup ketchup
3
garlic cloves, minced
2
teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2
teaspoon seasoned salt
1/2
teaspoon seasoned pepper
3
pounds ground beef
1
pound spicy bulk pork sausage
SAUCE:
1
cup ketchup
1/3
cup packed brown sugar
1-1/2
teaspoons ground mustard
1/2
teaspoon ground nutmeg
Cut
three 25x3-in. strips of heavy-duty foil; crisscross so they resemble spokes of
a wheel. Place strips on bottom and up sides of a 6- or 7-qt. slow cooker. Coat
strips with cooking spray. Top with potatoes.
In
a large bowl, combine eggs, onion, tomato sauce, saltines, ketchup, garlic,
Worcestershire sauce, seasoned salt and seasoned pepper. Add beef and sausage;
mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into a loaf; transfer to slow cooker. Combine
sauce ingredients; pour over top.
Cook,
covered, on low until a thermometer inserted into meat loaf reads at least 160°
and potatoes are tender, 6 to 6-1/2 hours. Using foil strips as handles, remove
meat loaf to a platter.
