A superb Copycat Meatloaf recipe from Boston Market. If you like meatloaf you must give this easy recipe a try.
Here’s another great Copycat Meatloaf recipe from Boston Market. Just like most meatloaf recipes, this one is super easy to make and ready in an hour.
If you have made meatloaf before you are probably asking yourself what is so special about this recipe.
Well for one, no eggs! The other thing you may notice is no bread crumbs are called for in this recipe. You are probably wondering what is going to hold the meat together (aka binder).
For this copycat meatloaf recipe, the tomato sauce mixture you add to the meat mixture as well as the all purpose flour acts as a binder.
The other thing that is different with this meatloaf recipe is that you bake it for about 30 minutes, then slice the meatloaf, add more sauce then bake for another 30 minutes.
The end result is a super moist meatloaf. Oh and you also get to use whatever kind of BBQ sauce you want. Sweet or Spicy, you decide!
Meatloaf Internal Temperature
Our friends over at the USDA recommend an internal temperature of 160°F when cooking meatloaf. This should be enough to kill the salmonella.
You can take the meatloaf out of the oven at around 150°F and let it rest for 10 minutes. Check the internal temperature again before slicing & serving.
Baking Meatloaf
When it comes to baking your meatloaf, you have a couple of options. You can bake it the traditional way in a loaf pan or bake it on a foil lined baking sheet.
Depending on how lean your ground beef is, you may find the meatloaf sitting in grease. One way to avoid this is to shape the meat mixture into the shape of a loaf and bake it on a baking sheet. This will allow the grease to run off into the pan.
