    I absolutely LOVE this Green Chili Meatloaf. While my Sweet Ketchup Meatloaf has been a long time favorite of ours, this one is now my favorite.

    I love the flavor of green chilies and I try to cook with them as often as I can. I also love Frank's RedHot Sauce so making this meatloaf recipe was a no brainer for me. If you are sensitive to "hot" food, I recommend you adjust the amount of Hot Sauce for you and your guests.

    I usually like to use 85% - 15% ground beef when making meatloaf. I find that if I use leaner ground beef the meatloaf is not as moist as I like. Conversely, using ground beef with a higher fat percentage makes it a little too greasy for my liking.

    💭 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.

    For some reason I always seem to add too many onions to my meatloaf. While the moisture from the onions will make the meatloaf moist, it will also make it "crumbly". I would suggest using whatever amount that works best for you and your guests.

    🌡️ Meatloaf Temperature

    Our friends over at the USDA recommend an internal temperature of 160°F. This should be enough to kill salmonella. You can take the meatloaf out of the oven around 150°F and let it rest for 10 minutes. Check the internal temperature again before slicing & serving.
