Nana' s Meatloaf step by step
Begin by allowing meat to sit out for a little so it's not so uncomfortably cold to handle. Be sure not to let it sit out for too long as this is not good. Just enough to be comfortable to handle. extra cold raw meat can cause discomfort to the person mixing it by hand, so often times this process is rushed, and the ingredients are not mixed properly..
This can be cooked in both the crock pot and oven. If cooking in oven be sure to cover lightly with foil. Allow to vent. Preheat oven to 375, and cook for 40mins If using crock pot method cook on low for 3-4 hours..
In a large mixing bowl, add sausage and blend well with beef. shape meat into a crater. Add egg, and mix well. Shape back into crater..
Chop fresh garlic, onion, tomato , and ketchup place into crater.
Sprinkle seasoning salt, and fresh herbs, or Italian seasoning.

Love all the options they have from Meatloaf to Smothered Pork Chops along with the Best Black Eyed Peas and Collard Greens! Meatloaf isnt suppose to be ground meat formed in a pan. Nanas meatloaf had bell peppers and onions and lots of seasonings. After that first time, Philip would actually request this. I love to sauté my veggies to enhance their flavors to the meatloaf.
