Brown Sugar Meatloaf

Recipe #38641 | 1½ hours | 20 min prep | add private note

Got this one from allrecipes.com. It's one of their most popular recipes. I use chili sauce or salsa instead of ketchup to give a nice contrast to the sweetness of the brown sugar. A lighter version can be made using Splenda brown sugar blend, skim milk, and Egg Beaters.

SERVES 6 -8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. 2
    Lightly grease a 5x9 inch loaf pan.
  3. 3
    Press the brown sugar in the bottom of the prepared loaf pan and spread the ketchup over the sugar.
  4. 4
    In a mixing bowl, mix thoroughly all remaining ingredients and shape into a loaf.
  5. 5
    Place on top of the ketchup.
  6. 6
    Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour or until juices are clear.

This was good. Husband wasn't too thrilled with the sweetness--he prefers savory, but the kids had thirds!

    This is the best meatloaf. My husband raves about it. I use ground turkey instead of beef and canned bread crumbs instead of crackers because that's what I have on hand. I make this about once a week. Steamed green beans make a great tasting side dish.

    Yooper, this was truly wonderful, moist, very good tasting, meaty (not too much filler), held-together beautifully, even when sliced hot, now that’s a good meatloaf! I knew that ½ cup packed brown sugar was way too much sugar for us with ½ cup ketchup, as we don’t like meat too sweet. So I tried 1/8 cup packed brown sugar, tasted it and it was just right for us. Would not change a thing in the ingredients other than the brown sugar/catsup ratio. Because my oven tends to burn on the bottom I put the catsup/brown sugar mixture all over the top of the meatloaf and that worked great. And thank-you Yooper for suggesting this recipe in my recipe request, I was looking forward to making it and we all really enjoyed it and Will be making it again!

    This was the best Meatloaf I put everything together the night before and put in a glass pan. The next day when I got out of work just had to pop in the oven while I made some mashed potatoes. I also used the chili sauce and I think that is the best combination with the brown sugar. I had to bake a little more than 1 hour. Had only one piece left. Thanks for Posting !!
