Directions
Meatloaf from Good Eats, This meat loaf from Alton Brown is moist and perfectly seasoned. My family has always been very picky when it comes to meatloaf. They loved this variation., This has always been my go-to meatloaf. Some advice though: The original recipe on foodnetwork.com calls for 1 teaspoon cumin, not 1 tablespoon. used this recipe tonight since I can save it in my recipe box and noticed the glaze was a bit “cumin-y” — just figured out why! X-D, I thought this was great and my husband loved it, too. He who swears no one can EVER make better meatloaf or lasagna than his mother He even commented a couple of times about how great it was and that he went back for seconds. I did make some changes but nothing too drastic. I only had lean ground beef so used that. I didn’t have enough garlic croutons so I toasted some bread and used that to make up the difference. Someone used up all my thyme husband so used a mix of marjoram and basil, with an extra shake of basil thrown in I like basil. I also added one of those small boxes of frozen spinach thawed and squeezed very dry. I put that in the food processor with the garlic and other veggies. I did not have any bell peppers so I left that out. Also, in the sauce, I omitted the cumin, put a few shakes of ground ginger in instead maybe a 1/4 to a 1/2 tsp, and added several dashes more of the hot sauce and worchestershire because I couldn’t taste it in the mix. I baked mine at 350 for 30 minutes, then brushed the sauce on, then I baked it for another 50 minutes and it came out measuring 180 degrees. I probably could have bumped the heat down, or something for the last round of baking. Still it didn’t seem overcooked. It was very good.
