maddmaxx ★ Posted October 18, 2016 Share #1 Posted October 18, 2016 It's national meat loaf day. There should be a good day's discussion on those very topics today. Now that I've dropped that bomb it's off to work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love meat loaf, there's something so basic and satisfying about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love meat loaf, there's something so basic and satisfying about it. Hmm, let me remember... Ground beast of some sort, raw oatmeal, milk, onion, egg, salt and pepper is the basic recipe. Tomato paste, mustard, and brown sugar on the top. After I make that a few times, I might sub out some of the meat with mushrooms, and might add some peas and corn, but not a lot. Hot sauce may be involved if I go a bit fancy, too. Basic but great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say that I love both but they both vary according to the cook. To those who haven't tried haggis then do so as it's very tasty and especially with turnip or neeps. Hard to get decent tasting turnips these days as they now taste of little ata all. I think that this is a result of our soil being exhausted by farmers who now never let the soil lie fallow but immediately plant another crop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So....you use oatmeal instead of breadcrumbs...that's interesting and I've never thought of that but certainly will try it. Have you tried a generous dash of Soya sauce in the mix...it brings out a really meaty flavour and again instead of onions I like to use shallots.

petitepedal ★ Posted October 18, 2016 Share #14 Posted October 18, 2016 I use a beef and pork blend...sometimes a little blue cheese in the middle. I use bread crumbs....no sugar..1 egg (or 2 if they are small), some times a dash of wooshtishire (however you want to spell it) a dash of ketchup & mustard...the seasoning...and or cheese option can change depending on what is in the fridge...did not use cheese this past weekend........don't always use worcestershire. Usually have a baked potato with it Mmmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worcestershire sauce (i/ˈwʊstərʃər/),[3] (Merriam-Webster: \ˈwu̇s-tə(r)-ˌshir-, -shər- also -ˌshī(-ə)r-\ ) sometimes shortened to Worcester sauce (/ˈwʊstər/), is a fermented liquid condiment of complex mixture, first created by the Worcester chemists John Wheeley Lea and William Henry Perrins, who later went on to form the company Lea & Perrins. The pair devised the recipe in the 1830s, however it wasn't to their liking and was set aside and forgotten about. It wasn't until the barrels were rediscovered many months later that the taste had mellowed into what is now known as Worcestershire Sauce. To this day, the ingredients are allowed to mature for 18 months before being blended and bottled in Worcester, where the exact recipe is still kept a secret. Although Lea & Perrins are recognised as the leading global brand of Worcestershire Sauce, other brands offer their own similar recipe and may add other spices to their own versions of Worcestershire Sauce. Worcestershire sauce is complex and unique in its flavour and aroma and frequently used to enhance various food and drink recipes. It is often an ingredient in Welsh rarebit, Caesar salad, Oysters Kirkpatrick, Deviled Eggs and sometimes added to chili con carne, beef stew and other beef dishes. Worcestershire sauce is also used to flavour cocktails such as Bloody Mary or Caesar.[4] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirtyhip Posted October 18, 2016 Share #22 Posted October 18, 2016 I don't make meatloaf. I make burger patties or meatballs. Last night we had some meat patties that I made with blue cheese, panko, egg, Worcestershire, onion, and garlic powder. We had some steamed veggies with it. I used some very lean grass fed beef for the burger. Yum. Can you still call it a burger without a bun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddmaxx ★ Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share #23 Posted October 18, 2016 I think meatloaf might be a good place to try some diced pickled jalapenos. I really like some of the ideas above though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you see this is where you're going all wrong....lean meat generally lacks flavour and the most flavoursome meat has streaks of fat running through it. Mind you I like the sound of the ingredients you use but had to Google "Panko" which I'd never heard of before now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
