  • How to Make Classic Meatloaf That Will Please Any Man - The Hillbilly Kitchen This is the ultimate meatloaf. It is made with basic ingredients and there are only a few simple steps. Meatloaf is perfect for any dinner and is relatively inexpensive to make. Meatloaf freezes well and the leftovers make great sandwiches, so make extra.
    Make this Father’s Day Dinner one that Dad won’t soon forget. Make him a big classic Meatloaf, creamy mashed potatoes, his favorite vegetables and some fresh rolls.
    The notion of a woman pleasing her husband has become unpopular and politically incorrect. When I was little, I was told the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. If you cook a man a good meal you will have his heart. If you have a man’s heart, you have the man.
    Put God First!
    Ingredients:
    1 lb. Ground beef
    2 tablespoons ketchup
    ½ cup BBQ sauce
    1 Sleeve Saltine crackers
    1 Egg ½ cup chopped Green bell pepper
    ½ cup chopped Onion
    Salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder to taste

    My husband and I both enjoyed cooking, and we watched these videos together. My husband passed away in November of 2022, and while watching this video he came immediately to my mind. Although I think of him every day, this video reminded me of how much he liked it when I made meatloaf, and I can almost hear him say, 'Let's make that!', which made me smile. During this past year I haven't cooked very much but I'm going to make this meatloaf. Thanks for the memory Hilbilly Kitchen.

I miss my husband everyday, you're so correct though, the fond memories of him do help, they do make me smile, and at times make me literally laugh out loud. Your loss is so recent, please know that you should take whatever time you need to grieve at your own pace. Take care.

      I’m so sorry about your husband. I too lost my husband last fall but he would not touch a meat loaf. I come here to learn recipes just for me or sometimes I cook for a neighbor or friend when they come to visit. I have enjoyed eating lots of things he would never eat but I have the memories about the meals he asked me to cook also. I miss him everyday and suspect I always will. 50 years is a long time. Enjoy your meatloaf I know I will mine is in the oven now! 😊

    My Dad is in assisted living and a Southern man. I regularly make him biscuits, cornbread and greens. My mom made good meatloaf, but I think this recipe would be something Dad would love when the dining room has something he calls weird’. I can see him with a plate of meatloaf sandwiches using biscuits.

      I just LOVE meatloaf sandwiches !!! I usually make them with either regular bread or hamburger buns. Have made 'em a few times using biscuits, though, using leftovers after eating the meatloaf with a meal ... I've always liked to put a ketchup and brown sugar glaze on top of my meatloaf during the last few minutes of cooking. And, my favorite "Meatloaf Meal" includes the loaf, some fresh creamed taters, green beans, and, buttermilk biscuits with butter and gravy. I'm wanting to make myself a meatloaf for lunch tomorrow, now ! YUMMM !!! 😋

    After about a year ago I made this recipe; I just put 2 pounder+ of double this recipe in the oven, covered for 2 hours to start. It worked last time and I expect this will go well with some green beans and mashed potatoes. No potatoes for me, I'm not trying to gain anymore weight. Maybe a green salad. This is one of the best recipes I've tried in my 50 years of home making. Thanks so much for your down-home recipes; I've tried many and loved them.

    An Italian mother taught me to always use more eggs than the recipe requires. In meatloaf and in meatballs. So I use twice the eggs that most people use. The meatballs just melt in your mouth and are fluffy. I also mixed everything except the meat together first and then add the meat to the wet mixture and then mix until it's just combined.

    I just discovered ya all and this dish especially reminded me of my late momma. She passed away back in 2019 and watching this I can remember mom hand mixing the meatloaf while sitting down on the couch. She used rolled oats in hers and a few other things in it. She mixed that by hand for what seemed like several minutes. Now you are stretching me in my imagination in using the Bar B Q sauce. I now live in Texas and in Texas, we LOVE Bar B Que! So I have told my darling wife that we simply must try ya alls meatloaf. Also, I have never seen it made in a cast-iron skillet before. That's new also. I wonder if that changes how thoroughly the meat cooks? Anyway, watching you made me feel like I was a kid again watching my late momma doing it only ya all do it a little different but hey, that's OK. My wife and I were talking while watching this and we will be trying it out.

    I just love the way you cook and your recipe's. My gege gave me her recipe when I was only 16 years old and I still use it today, and it's amazing how your recipe is almost exactly like hers. She also swore by using the cast iron skillet. By chance I found a rectangular pan at an estate sale, and had to get it. It makes perfect slices for sandwiches that the family die for. My husband is from the UK and the first time I made it for him he tried to say NO WAY! His mom made it with half ground mince as they call it and half mutton. He stated that he always hated it and that it was greasy. But like my gege, myself and you we all used ground round or ground chuck. I insisted he give it a try,, he begrudgingly did with a face of sour pickles, but immediately loved it and couldn't get enough of it. He has since made it a requirement in the kitchen that I make it at least once every 2 weeks. When we went to visit family in the UK, he insisted I make it there for them. I made 5lbs of it for 12 people. My step son that lives in the UK begged for a meatloaf sandwich for his lunch at work. I luckily hid 1 slice for his lunch as requested, because as my husband stated the locusts devoured the rest. My step son took it to work and heated it in the lunch room microwave pulled it out, and went to get his drink in the front of the grocery store in his h he worked. Unfortunately his boss smelled it and couldn't resist and ate the whole thing. My step son came home from work almost in tears. In the 3 weeks we were there I had to make meatloaf 3 more times, and gave the recipe out many times it was such a hit. Even the store manager in the premade section used the recipe and was selling it in 1lb loaves. I miss my gege every day but I treasure the 3 ring notebook with all her recipes that I made while spending time in the kitchen with her. I add to it all the time when I come across good tried and true recipes giving credit where due. I have 12 grandchildren now and I'm copying each h page and making a binder for each one of them. I dont want anyone fighting over mine when I'm gone. I watch your videos each and every day, and to continually this day I'm still learning, thank yuh ou for all you do and god bless you!👩‍🍳

      Here is my gege's recipe
      2 lbs ground round
      (I like 90% or leaner less grease drippings)
      1 cup finely diced onion
      1/2 cup each green and red sweet bell
      pepper chopped finely
      2 cups plain bread crumbs
      3 eggs beaten
      2 cloves garlic minced or
      1 teaspoon chopped garlic
      1/2 cup ketchup
      1/2 cup bbq sauce
      (I use KC Masterpiece Original BBQ Sauce)
      1 teaspoon salt
      1 teaspoon black pepper
      2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
      1 teaspoon ground sage
      2 tablspoons Worcestershire sauce
      1 teaspoon dijon mustard
      Lightly saute onion, peppers and garlic in 1 tablespoon olive oil until onions are translucent.
      In large mixing bowl combine all ingredients until throughly mixed. At this point you can make individual meatballs, individual meatloafs or I usually divide in half and make 2 loaves. We use one for dinner and one for lunches the next days sandwiches.
      Because of my husband l dont top loafs with anything, but gege's original recipe states to mop 1 tablespoon ketchup on top of loaf.
      I cook at 350° for about 1 hour, but i always cook until internal temp reads 160°
      Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.
      My family loves my meatloaf with homemade sour cream and chive mashed potatoes, mixed steamed vegetables, rolls and a side of mushroom gravy.
      Hope you enjoy as much as my family does.

Extra time let the flavors work miracles. Potato salad with extra mustard and dill relish went in the fridge with the meat loaf. It was extra tasty as well. That's my signiture trick--let it sit over night, THEN cook it.

    Thank you for your video. My mother taught me to make meatloaf, but here's was always to dense and dry. She never put the crackers, that's why...
    Sometimes, I make rice meatloaf. I mix about 1.5 lbs ground beef, a can of diced tomatoes, chopped onions and bell peppers, a small can of tomato sauce, salt, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, worstershire sauce, and 2c. Instant rice, mix together into a loose mixture. Form loaves in a baking dish. In a separate bowl, mix one can of tomato paste, 4oz of water, salt, cayenne, garlic powder and worstershire sauce. Pour over the top of meatloaves. Baked at 350⁰ for an 1.5 hours
    PS... Add chopped cabbage to the mixture and have cabbage roll meatloaf. That's the same exact ingredients that we stuff cabbage rolls with...

    Parenting tip: if you want to introduce veggies to your kids and have them like them, give them one or two pieces and while they try it you try a piece and get all happy smiling and enjoying it. You can add dips but kids get interested when you make it taste good. Broccoli when steamed with garlic powder and salt tastes divine. It's all in the presentation and mood.
    My kids begged for spinach lol. It's really good of seasoned up.
    Texture people won't like it but if your kids not a texture kid you're gonna have a wonderful young mind to try delicious fresh things😁❤

      I have been using cast iron for over 40 years. A good olive oil and as many natural ingredients as I can find. Besides being healthier than any non-stick pan, handling cast iron is good exercise. A well-seasoned cast iron pan is every bit as non-stick as the toxic pans. A good 10 inch skillet with a lid is worth it’s weight in gold. Thrift stores, flea marts, and yard sales are good spots to find some good classic cast iron.

    I just want to thank you for your tips. I loved the meatloaf although I did take out all the veggies and bbq sauce. But the tip about over mixing and smushing down the meat along with the ingredients, helped me figure out what I was as doing wrong. I’ve been avoiding meatloaf although it’s a fav in my house due to the meat taking 3 hours to cook and still didn’t come out well done. It was still pink in the middle! I’m a young mother and wife, with no women to look up to. My mother passed young and my granny did too. I was close with my granny and almost all your recipes are very similar from hers and made from scratch which also helps with my indigestion/heartburn problems from the processed foods. I truly thank you from the bottom of my heart and enjoy your recipes and have helped me cope with a ton of issues. Take care and God bless!

    don't know if you've done a ham loaf yet, but I came across an old recipe for one a while ago and I decided to make it the other day. It was really good and so easy. It's about 2/3 ground ham, and 1/3 ground beef, graham crackers for the filler, and egg. That's it. Then you form it into a loaf on a flat pan or use a loaf pan. Cover and bake. Take out when it's done and spread orange marmalade all over it and put it back in the oven for a few minutes. It was really good! (if you like orange marmalade, that is)

    at 4:47 in THANK YOU for having that thing about big chunks in your meatloaf. Hand chopped veggies are definitely the way to go. I’m not the biggest bell pepper- inside-sauces-and-meats- guy (they’re great with, say, fajitas) so I do mine with 2/3 chop Italian sweet peppers and 1/3 jalapeño. In my house we go with heat so I do not seed the jalapeño but most American households probably would prefer it that way. PS: today is May 2 2022. Stock every dollar of food that you can ❤️ Our country is on the chastisement meter and discernment is critical.

    I've been looking for a meatloaf recipe that matched what my Mom used to make when we were kids. She was an Oklahoma farmer's daughter (literally born during the Dust Bowl) and her meatloaves were always cooked in a cast iron skillet. She'd use crackers or oatmeal, depending on what she had on hand, and she always added a little bit of sage (I think that was her German Grandma's influence). I also noticed that a lot of meatloaf recipes nowadays are hand-worked until they're almost a meat 'paste', when they should be more open texture, like yours. Your tip of using the fork to keep the structure open is a good idea (I'm pretty sure Mom used her hands, but she knew when to stop working the ingredients to keep the texture open.). My wife loves meatloaf, and she's listened to me rave about my Mom's meatloaf over the years, so I'm going try to make her a meatloaf, Oklahoma farm style. Thanks for this!

    Haven't watched the video yet, but meatloaf was my favorite meal when I came home from college. My mother would always serve meatloaf with mashed potatoes and green beans at my request. Meatloaf sandwiches are the best! My mother used what she had on hand as a filler, usually leftover bread which a lot of the time was homemade. Yes, oatmeal my mom used often as well. My mother always used onions and celery, but I understand you're not a celery fan. My mother always put milk in to soften the bread crumbs that she used or the oatmeal, so we didn't have any kind of sauce in it, but she would put in Worcestershire sauce, and I believe some mustard along with seasonings of her choice probably garlic powder, parsley, thyme. My mom's topping was ketchup and brown sugar, and maybe a little Worcestershire sauce, or mustard. Your meatloaf certainly looks tasty, and I'm sure I would find it delicious! You folks have safe travels and enjoy yourself! 🙂
