Of course, the traditional way to prepare a meat loaf is in the oven.
But I've heard of some people making it on the stove like a pot roast.
Have you ever made it that way?

Why? This sounds like a question posted a couple of weeks ago, about making
french fries on the BBQ. Experimentation is good, but I think that in this
case, the time would be better spent at the library, browsing cookbooks
you've never met.

I've never tried it. I've heard of some people doing meatloaf in a crock
pot. Never tried that, either.

This is a little OT but is it wrong to use cherry saw dust instead of bread
crumbs?

Depends on what you're making. I can see cherry saw dust going nicely with
venison or duck. Might be a bit strong for chicken, though. I'd use oak for
that.

Hmm. I seem to remember that some high-fiber breads used to contain
wood fiber. You're just skipping the flour. Try it, but not more than
about 2-3 tablespoons. I'd probably mix it with the meat rather than
soaking it with the milk and egg first. It might clump together and
start to form a board or something.

My mother used to make a recipe similar to this. I plan on giving this
newly found recipe a try later this week.

As to meat loaf falling apart, it's best to let the meat loaf rest a
few minutes before removing from the pan and cutting.

I think of meat loaf as a dry roasted item. When you make a pot roast, on
the stove top or in the oven, it is braised. That it, you brown the meat,
add liquid, and slow cook it. The idea is to let the moist heat dissolved
the tough connective tissue and turn a less expensive, tough cut into
something tender and flavorful. Grinding the meat for meat loaf
accomplishes the tenderizing. Dry roasting something on the stove seems at
best inefficient and probably dangerous as it would require constant
attention.

I am aware of someone who cooks meat loaf in a pressure cooker. I find that
unappealing as it doesn't allow for any browning and probably yields a
ghastly gray lump of meat. Rather than making a meatloaf in liquid on the
stove top, I would probably just make meatballs - same thing, but you can
brown them first which makes them more attractive and more flavorful. Just
my opinion.

"Salisbury steak" or "Danish meat patties" (recipe on request) can be
sautéed, fried, or cooked this way, though often times they are
"broiled" or baked. The sauté or fry method allows for the making of an
quick and easy & tasty sauce.

One time i was making meat loaf and half way through the process got
distracted, forgot what i was doing and went back to finish and made
hamburgers with the meat loaf mix, fried them up in a pan and served on
a toasted bun with lettuce, mayo, sliced red onion & tomato. Was very
good.

The book that comes with a Crock Pot(tm) claims that you can cook
anything in it very well, even bread.

I say it's all just a crock. It's no more of a universal cooker than an
Amana Radar Range, which of course has cookbooks available that explain
how you can cook anything in it very well.

Every job has it's appropriate tools. You can make meatloaf on your
car's exaust manifold - that doesn't mean you should.

Most of this discussion seems to revolve around meatloaf baked inside a
pan - the other method is to use a pan to form it and then turn it out onto
a flat baking sheet that has a lip, and liberally apply a tomato-based
glaze. This allows the fat to run out and promotes crust formation.

You can use any heat source you like to cook your food. Some will
provide better results than others for some foods. I don't think meatloaf
is easily applied to stovetop cooking. That doesn't mean you can't, or that
your uncle Delbert's pressure cooker meatloaf isn't delish, it means that
I'm not about to try it or advise anyone else to try it.

"X-No-Archive: yes"


Actually my mother's recipe was fairly decent. It was a moist meat
loaf, not like oven baked, but decent. We ate the meat loaf a lot
during summer because firing up the oven when it was 118 degrees
outside didn't appeal. She had five young children to feed so meat loaf
was a popular meal.

You are right about the right equipment does determine how the finished
product will turn out. I have made meat loaf in the microwave (when it
was 118 degrees outside) and the product was tasty but not like oven
baked meat loaf. I've also made muffins and cakes in the microwave for
the same reason. Both turned out well but not exactly like their oven
baked counter parts. Good but not the same.

Slow cookers are good for pot roasts, soups and some sauces. Anything
that benefits from simmering and slow cooking are good candidates for
the crock pot.

Meat loaf works extremely well in a crock pot. My question is, why do
you all insist on cross posting this in rec.woodworking?

I would rather fire up the oven in hot weather than braise something for
hours on the range top. At least the oven is insulated.

If the heat is such an issue, then I would cook outside.

Years ago I had a glass ring dish (like an angel food cake pan) that

bottom?

I like to line the muffin tin with thin slices of home made bread, which
are then lightly toasted first. Then i use a fish or other seafood
"stuffing" mix, panada "force meat" & etc. to fill & bake the the
toasted & buttered bread cups. Beats making a bunch of individual
pastry dough cases to fill with various meat mixes.

Personally a baked green pepper stuffed with a bread stuffing flavoured
with anchovy is a favourite of mine.

I like to line the muffin tin with thin slices of home made bread, which
are then lightly toasted first. Then i use a fish or other seafood
"stuffing" mix, panada "force meat" & etc. to fill & bake the the
toasted & buttered bread cups. Beats making a bunch of individual
pastry dough cases to fill with various meat mixes.

Personally a baked green pepper stuffed with a bread stuffing flavoured
with anchovy is a favourite of mine.
