The Meat Loaf
- 1 lb lean ground beef thawed
- 1/2 cup rice krispies or oatmeal, bread crumbs
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1/4 cup bbq sauce
- 1 tbsp worcestershire
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp parsley
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
The Sauce
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup bbq sauce
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
Preheat oven to 425 F. Grease muffin tins.
In a bowl, combine all of the meatloaf ingredients. Mix together well with a spoon.
With your hands, form 2-3 tbsp balls of the meat mixture and put in each muffin tin. It should make 10-12 'loaves',
In the same bowl, combine the sauce ingredients. Mix well with spoon. Place about 2 tsp worth of sauce on each loaf.
Bake in oven uncovered for approximately 22-26 minutes. Or until internal temperature is 160 F.
NOTES:
Once cooked, set the meat loaves on a paper towel to get rid of some grease. If you used lean beef there should not be a whole lot.
You could also cook this as a regular, large, meat loaf. You will need to cook it longer, but the rest of the concept is the same. Be sure to bake until internal temp is 160F.
SUBSTITUTIONS:
Beef for ground venison or turkey.
Rice Krispies for bread crumbs or oatmeal
To lighten it up, replace regular ketchup and bbq sauce with sugar free.
Add 1/4 - 1/2 cup shredded cheese or cubed cheese for some extra deliciousness!
