What You Need:
1 0.5 lbs of ground beef
1⁄2 a cup of breadcrumbs
one big egg
1/2 cup of ketchup
mustard, measuring one spoonful
One tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce
half a teaspoon of flaked garlic
half a teaspoon of celery powder
Toss with salt and pepper.
Cook and crumble six pieces of bacon.
1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup chopped pickles (not required)
What to do
A preheated oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) is the first step.
2. incorporate the egg, breadcrumbs, and ground beef in a big bowl. Stir to incorporate.
Third, season the beef mixture with salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and ketchup. Thoroughly combine all ingredients by mixing them together.
Fourth, if using, fold in the crumbled bacon, shredded cheese, and diced pickles.
Shape the dough into a loaf and transfer it to a loaf pan. Add more fried bacon pieces and cheese on top if you want.
6. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and bake the meatloaf for 55 minutes, or until it's fully cooked and a little browned on top.
Step7: Ten minutes before slicing, allow the meatloaf to rest. This aids in retaining all the succulent tastes!
8. If you want, top with more pickles and ketchup and serve hot.
Tips and Variations
Swap out the beef with ground chicken or turkey for a leaner alternative. Try using pepper jack for a spicier flavor or mozzarella for a gentler one; you can also try using other kinds of cheese. To increase the vegetable content, try using some finely chopped bell peppers or mushrooms. A glazy topping that caramelizes wonderfully may be achieved by layering ketchup with a little brown sugar and baking it on top of the meatloaf.
