Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 6 ounces Stove Top stuffing mix dry; any variety
- 2 eggs large
- 2/3 cup ketchup divided: 1/3 cup in the loaf and 1/3 cup on top
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, dry stuffing mix, eggs, 1/3 cup ketchup, milk and water until well combined. Stop mixing once the ingredients are distributed.
- Transfer the mixture to the baking sheet and shape it into a loaf about 2 inches thick, keeping its thickness even.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- Spread the remaining 1/3 cup ketchup over the loaf. Return it to the oven for 10 to 15 minutes, until a food thermometer inserted into the center reads 160°F.
- Let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Reheat leftover slices to 165°F, checked with a food thermometer.
Notes
Use the stuffing mix dry; do not prepare it according to the box directions. A loaf pan will take longer than the baking sheet, so judge doneness by the center temperature. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours in shallow, covered containers for 3 to 4 days, or freeze for 3 to 4 months. Thaw in the refrigerator, cold water or microwave, not on the counter. USDA FSIS does not recommend reheating leftovers in a slow cooker.
