    I've never seen the bread trick. i usually cook mine on a bed of new potatoes in a 13x9 baking dish, but I might try using bread directly underneath the the meatloaf and spreading the potatoes around in the pan. I like to include Italian sausage in my meatloaf. If I don't have any, I'll just include fennel seed, preferably crushed. I used Italian herb bread crumbs. I've also never put any tomato product directly in the loaf, but used ketchup or tomato soup concentrate on top for cooking. But I usually prefer it with no sauce on top and a nice, seared crust.

      Yes we're all quarantined for public health. I wouldn't trivialize "house arrest" given we are very punitive society and have ruined many people's lives by thinking punishment, rather then rehabilitation, solves problem (we're 5% of world population; 25% of prison population). Fortunately we will come out of covid quarantine without a prison record to follow. I think of it as we have to isolate for common good. But I hope it ends soon, we're social beings, being isolated is horrible.

    Paula, thank you so much for the tip about using bread in the bottom of the pan to soak up the grease! I was never taught to cook in my childhood and in my adulthood I prefer not to use recipes. I watch a couple of TH-cam videos when I want to make a specific dish and I take a little bit from one in the other until I make it my own. I had never made meatloaf in my life before the last time I saw this video and I could not believe how well that bread in the bottom thing worked not a speck of grease! And right now, I have my second ever meatloaf using the same trick. I didn't use the oats but used a combination of Panko and Italian bread crumbs instead.

    If you substitute barbeque sauce for the tomato sauce in the meatloaf it has so much better flavor. I use about 1/2 cup for a 2lb meatloaf. Instead of chopped onions, I use the Durkee fried onions crumbed into small pieces. Then you can top the meatloaf with the barbeque sauce too. My husband hates meatloaf and he loves this recipe.

    Oh Paula, this brought back some really happy memories for me. We used to always say my mother's meatloaf was legendary. She would make it with ketchup on the top. The big difference is she would put it in a 9 x 13 pan in the middle and all around it she would put those little small canned potatoes and then pour some of the tomato sauce over them as well. As the meatloaf cooked and the juices came out they soaked in to the potatoes, making them amazingly flavorful and delicious! Haven't made it in a while. I really need to do that! Mom may be gone, but I make many of her recipes still. ❤

      The bread gets very soggy, but the meatloaf does not stick to it, maybe because of the fat from the meat. Paula once said in a video, "Now, try not to eat the bread after you take out the meatloaf!" I always threw mine out, but it's probably good and I bet dogs would love it.

    I have made this several times. It is good I only change I use bbq sauce instead of ketchup. I find it does not hold as slices. I do not bake in jelly roll. When she did it on her show she baked in a 9x13. I could be using too much tomatoes because I used the 14oz can. But it is good. I make it because it uses oatmeal which I always have instead of bread which I don’t always have.

    Paula - when it came to meatloaf, a staple in our home growing up, my grandmother Adams said it best: don’t mess with meatloaf. Meaning, she kept it simple and didn’t experiment with different ingredients. Her recipe is pretty much the same as this one except she used tiny pieces of leftover bread for the tightener (Depression Era people never threw anything away!).

    Hi Paula😊
    I tried this meatloaf recipe way back when you had your first show many many years ago. I always made two of them at a time because of two teenage boys. The first time I made it both meatloafs got devoured. From that moment on I have used your recipe. Now when the boys come for supper your meatloaf is always requested.

  • @wyomingborn1982

    Just been working and hanging out with my hubby. The differences in our meatloaf recipe starts with the fact that we grind our own meat, so we control which meat is used and how much fat (personal favorite is chuck with bacon ground together). We also cook the veggies (especially the onions since even slightly raw onions upset hubby’s stomach). The last difference is the topping/glaze. My husband grew up eating meatloaf topped with thick beef gravy, which is actually quite tasty.

    I have never been a good cook. That meant that my 10 year old son had to learn how to cook If he wanted to ever eat good food. I remember the 1st time he made meat loaf. I never much cared for meat loaf, so I wasn't looking forward to it when I came home from work. What a shock!! It was, and still is, the best meatloaf I ever ate! He used Stovetop Stuffing instead of bread crumbs. It had a firmer consistency than most I had ever tasted. He also put cheese in the middle and the same topping you did on yours, only he used less on top of his, and He served it with a small bowl of that topping, so you could add what you wanted. It was soo yummy! He is 36 years old now, and still a great cook.

    Good Sunday morning Ms Paula and friends!👋🏽 Over the years, I've made meatloaf various ways. However, I've never used nor have I ever heard of using oatmeal in meatloaf. I've used either crackers, bread crumbs or actual broken up bread soaked in a little milk. The seasoning combination that my family and I seem to like best is the McCormick meatloaf seasoning pack. I use onion, bell pepper and egg. Sometimes I've used tomato sauce, ketchup, ketchup mixed with bbq sauce, or even spaghetti sauce or marinara sauce. I prefer using spaghetti sauce, a little in the meatloaf mixture and on top. Either way, my meatloaf has always been💣!!! 😁

    Hi Paula, my meatloaf is a bit different from yours. I’ve been making it this way for ages and even people who don’t normally like meatloaf like mine. I do make the exact same topping though. 👍🏻👍🏻
    What I do is buy the meatloaf mix at the grocery store, which is beef, pork, and veal ground together. The packages are usually about a pound and a third. To that I’ll add a beaten egg, half an envelope of onion soup mix, a few good glugs of Worcestershire sauce, a half cup milk, and a half cup dried breadcrumbs. I beat the egg into the milk and then add the soup mix and the Worcestershire to that so it’s all combined before I mix it into the meat. I pour the milk/egg mixture into the meat, squish it together, and then add the bread crumbs. I form it into a loaf in the center of a sheet pan and add the topping on all sides, which like yours is a few tablespoons of ketchup, mustard, and brown sugar mixed together. I bake for an hour at 350.

    Meatloaf is an all-time favorite! But when I was working and preparing lunches in advance, I actually burned myself out on meatloaf. But I'm finally able to eat it again. Growing up we put bell pepper and onion in the meat mixture along with oatmeal, egg, salt, pepper and worcestershire sauce. We put part of the 8 oz can of tomato sauce in the mixture, reserving a small amount for the top.
    This was always good with mashed potatoes and green beans or other green vegetables. But the leftover meatloaf was never eaten as a full meal again, like when it was just baked. I think the best part was making meatloaf sandwiches with mayonnaise and ketchup. In fact, I think we enjoyed the sandwiches more.
    Through the years I've added different things to meatloaf for different variations, I even put boiled eggs in the middle for a surprise when cutting into it. Meatloaf doesn't have to be fancy because the best end result is the sandwich.
    Well a week ago we were buried in snow and today it was in the 70's. That's Texas for you. 🤠
    We've been cooped up for so long but today my sister and I went out for a hamburger. 🍔 Not just any hamburger but the kind of burger that you crave. And we had been craving it since the snow last week. And this wasn't from a chain restaurant, it's a family owned place that puts a lot of effort in what they make. It's a big juicy burger served with fries. My sister and I go together because neither of us can eat a whole one. We also walked over to a local bakery and got a cinnamon roll and whoopie pie. I love living in a small town where you can just walk around the square and find so many things. And it was nice to get out after such a long time.
    Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend. It's nice to have some decent weather again. Don't get too jealous, next week will be down in the 50's until at least Friday. Just in time for another very pleasant weekend. 💞
