Re: The Meatloaf Thread
Country Meat Loaf
Kye thats sounds nice, do you mean by pan, a loaf tin type shape?
This sounds like it would go nicely with a cheese sauce!!

I'm getting hungrier and hungrier by the minute
cheese sauce yum yum
The best thing would be a loaf tin, because by shaping it by hand on a tray it might not keep its form when cooking.

Turkey Meatloaf
2 pounds of Ground Turkey (dark and white meat) or substitute 1/2 pound with Ground Pork
This is great! I was just wondering yesterday how good a poultry or poultry/pork meatloaf would taste and now this gives me the courage to give it a whirl! Thanks!

Good luck Homestead. If I'm not using pork, I'm sure to add plenty of vegs, eggs, etc. to keep it moist.

1/2 teaspoon ground mustard

I'll keep that in mind, too. I always have plenty of eggs on hand and if the eggs in the incubator hatch me some more hens in 2 weeks, I'll have even more come late summer!

Re: The Meatloaf Thread
Meatloaf with cream cheese filling
meatmix for meat loaf from 500 g meat (below or your own favorite)
2 breen onions (cut into rings)
approx. 100 g philadelphia type cream cheese (you can use herbed cream cheese too)
a little butter
method:
Melt the butter in a little pan. Add onion rings and fry till softened. Take off heat (or on very low), add cheese and stir in till melted.
Put half of the meat mix into a loaf pan (I line mine with non stick paper). Push into the pan in a way so that you have a sort of lengthy bowl of meat.
Spoon the cheese mix into this dent. Then close it off with the rest of the meat.
Bake at 200° for about 45 min.
Plain meat loaf (or meat mix for recipe above):
500 g ground/minced meat (preferably half pork half beef)
1 finely chopped onion
1 stale roll (soaked and water squeezed out again)
S+P
1 egg
if the mix is too thin add a few bread crumbs, but if the bread was squeezed out enough it should be fine
Bake in loaf pan at 200° for 35- 40 min.

Re: The Meatloaf Thread
That sounds great Susanne! I may try that with the addition of whole pistachios to the creamed cheese and a layer of sauteed spinach and shallots scented with nutmeg next to the cream cheese.
I'd like to try grilling the meatloaf, perhaps as meatballs on skewers or grill the slices for sandwiches.
