Super Moist Meatloaf
This incredibly moist meatloaf is a treasured family recipe that has garnered much affection in our household. By opting for fresh bread instead of traditional dried breadcrumbs, you achieve a meatloaf that is both juicy and flavorful.
Ingredients
- Ground beef
- Chopped onion
- Small chunks of fresh bread
- Beaten eggs
- Milk
- Chopped green bell pepper
- Salt
- Sage
- Ground black pepper
- Ketchup to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly combine the ground beef, onion, bread chunks, beaten eggs, milk, bell pepper, salt, sage, and black pepper. Once well mixed, transfer the mixture into a 9x5-inch loaf pan, pressing it down gently. Top the loaf with a layer of ketchup according to your taste.
- Place the loaf in the preheated oven and bake until it is fully cooked, about 45 minutes. The meatloaf should no longer be pink in the center, and an instant-read thermometer should register a minimum internal temperature of 160°F (70°C).
