Doc Bear's Traditional Meatloaf

A classic meatloaf made in a traditional loaf pan with seasoned ground beef and vegetables. This comfort food staple features the same flavorful mixture as the mini version.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 each egg
  • 4 each slices of bread
  • 0.25 Cup milk
  • 1 each onion, chopped fine
  • 1 each bell pepper, chopped fine
  • 1 each Roma Tomato, small dice
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 Tbsp Worcestershire
  • 0.25 tsp oregano
  • 0.25 tsp basil
  • 0.25 tsp marjoram
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and coat a loaf pan with cooking spray.
  2. Take all the ingredients and place them in a large bowl and mix completely using your hands. Ensure any large pieces are broken up and mixed into the meat.
  3. Place the meat mix into the loaf pan and spread it out so that the top is flat.
  4. Place in preheated oven on a rack in the center and cook until the internal temperature of the meat loaf reads 165°F on a thermometer, about 45 - 55 minutes.
  5. Once cooked, allow to set for 5 minutes, then remove from the pan. Cut slices approximately 1 inch thick and place on a plate with side items.
  6. This meal goes well with mashed potatoes, gravy, and steamed Broccoli.
