Meatloaf And Gravy Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Mix 1/2 can of soup with ground meat, egg, bread crumbs and onion.
• Shape into loaf, place into Pam sprayed pan to prevent sticking.
• Bake for 1 to 1 and 1/2 hours until done.
• Gravy: Drippings from meat into sauce pan (be sure to scrape all the bits from bottom of pan) with remaining soup and water (here is where you would add that extra can of soup to make even more gravy).
• Use bouillon if needed.
• Salt and pepper to taste.
• Stir over medium heat to boiling point. Remove from heat and serve with meat.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine ground beef, bread crumbs, chili sauce, egg, salt, and freshly ground black pepper; mix well. Shape into an 8x4 inch loaf pan.
• Place loaf pan on a rack in an oven-roasting pan. Bake for 1 hour, or until done. Cook until internal temperature measures 160 degrees F (70 degrees C); the meat should be well done, with no trace of pink. Remove from oven, and allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
• While the meatloaf is resting, prepare the gravy. In a medium saucepan, melt butter or margarine over medium heat. Add mushrooms and onions; cook and stir until tender. Add beef broth; simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Combine water and cornstarch in a small cup; stir into broth. Cook and stir for 1 minute, or until thickened.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Toast the bread crumbs in a dry skillet over medium heat until browned and fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and set aside. Add the olive oil, onions, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper to the skillet and cook until onions are tender, about 8 minutes. Let cool slightly. Add the onions to the bread crumbs along with the meat, cheese, and Worcestershire sauce. Toss and mix gently. Add the eggs and stir to coat the meat completely.
• Transfer to a foil-lined sheet pan and gently press into desired shape. Bake until an instant read thermometer registers 160 degrees F in the center of the loaf, about 45 minutes.
• Tent the meatloaf with foil and let rest for 15 minutes while you make the gravy (or you can make the gravy while the meatloaf is baking).
• Gravy: Cook the onions, garlic, and oregano in the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until browned, about 6 minutes. Add the tomato paste and bay leaf. Stir until paste turns brick red and garlic is fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken broth and crushed tomatoes. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer and cook sauce until it thickens, about 5 minutes. Whisk in Parmesan cheese, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Discard the bay leaf and transfer the sauce to a gravy boat. Slice the meatloaf and serve with the gravy.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Pour the oil into a sauté pan and set over medium-high heat.
• Add the onion and garlic and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and allow to cool.
• In a mixing bowl, stir together the eggs, thyme, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce, and milk.
• Place the ground meat into another bowl and pour the egg mixture over the meat.
• Add the saltines, parsley, onion, and garlic to the bowl.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Roll up your sleeves, and knead the meat together with the other ingredients until well blended (if you like, cook a small portion of the mixture in a pan, taste, and adjust seasoning).
• Transfer to a cookie sheet and form into a loaf.
• If using the bacon, wrap the slices lengthwise over the top and tuck them under the loaf, to completely cover the meat.
• Bake for 1 hour or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf reads 160 degrees.
• If the bacon on the top is not as crisp as you would like, put the meatloaf under the broiler for a few minutes.
• Remove from the oven and set aside to rest for 5 minutes.
• Slice and serve with mushroom gravy (recipe#66984) and mashed potatoes recipe#104098.
• Mushroom Gravy (recipe#66984): Melt the butter in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat.
• Add the mushrooms and sauté until brown, about 7 minutes.
• Stir in the flour; it will become very pasty.
• Cook this roux for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
• It will stick to the bottom of the pan a little bit; that's okay.
• Stir in the stock, wine, soy sauce, and pepper, and bring to a boil.
• Cook the sauce at a lively simmer for 5 minutes, stirring almost constantly and scraping any crusty bits that adhere to the bottom of the pan.
• Serve in a sauceboat.
