Not just your every day meatloaf. Even good the next day sliced thin and smashed between a couple of slices of white bread!

Ingredients
  • 6 ounces garlic flavored croutons
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 3/4 onion, roughly chopped
  • 1 carrot, peeled and broken
  • 3 whole cloves of garlic
  • 1/2 red bell pepper
  • 18 ounces of ground chuck
  • 18 ounces of ground sirloin
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 egg
  • FOR THE GLAZE:
  • 1/2 cup Heinz catsup
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • two dashes of Worcestershire sauce
  • two dashes of hot sauce (tobasco is awesome)
  • 1 tablespoon of honey

Directions
  1. Heat oven to 325 degrees F.
  2. In a food processor bowl, combine croutons, black pepper, cayenne pepper, chili powder, and thyme. Pulse until the mixture is of a fine texture.
  3. Place this mixture into a large bowl.
  4. Combine the onion, carrot, garlic, and red pepper in the food processor bowl. Pulse until the mixture is finely chopped, but not pureed.
  5. Combine the vegetable mixture, ground sirloin, and ground chuck with the bread crumb mixture.
  6. Season the meat mixture with the kosher salt.
  7. Add the egg and combine thoroughly, but avoid squeezing the meat.
  8. Pack this mixture into a 10-inch loaf pan to mold the shape of the meatloaf. Onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, turn the meatloaf out of the pan onto the center of the tray.
  9. Insert a temperature probe at a 45 degree angle into the top of the meatloaf. Avoid touching the bottom of the tray with the probe. Set the probe for 155 degrees.
  10. Combine the catsup, cumin, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce and honey. Brush the glaze onto the meatloaf after it has been cooking for about 10 minutes.
  11. If it starts to smoke, you have cooked it too long.

Sounds delish. Thank you Capt.


What a winner! we make a meatloaf using ground turkey. Jett


I have to make this... just so I can "smash" some the next day in a sandwich! Great..
Thanks


I'm definitely adding this to my favorites. I can't wait to try this recipe! Thanks


This sounds amazing and will try it soon. My kids and hubby love meatloaf! I like the glaze ingredients! Usually I use ketchup, brown sugar and dry mustard. This sounds better and I will rate it once I have tried it! :)


This is just wonderful. Saving it. I will use heinz 57 instead of ketchup...(I have a ketchup thing...can't believe I'm from the south...LOL). Can't wait to try. Thanks for sharing.
