A classic dinner made in the slow cooker, you can’t ask for much more. This Slow Cooker Meatloaf is must like the classic and one of my faovire recipes.
I love a good meatloaf recipe. This recipe is just like my classic meatloaf recipe but it’s made in the slow cooker.
How to make Slow Cooker Meatloaf:
Step one: Get started by preparing your slow cooker. Spray slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
Step two: Next in a large mixing bowl add ground beef, finely minced onion, eggs, bread crumbs, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, seasoning salt, garlic powder, and 1/2 cup of ketchup. The rest of the ketchup and remaining ingreidients will be used as a topping for the meatloaf.
Step three: Gently mix all of your ingredients with your hands and form into a loaf then place into the slow cooker.
Step four: Last work on the topping. Mix the remaining 1/4 cup of ketchup with brown sugar and mustard. Add this to the top of your meatloaf.
Cooking Directions:
Step five: Cook on low for 3-4 hours or until meatloaf is cooked through. Once cooked through slice and serve.
Tips:
- Use a lean beef. when cooking your beef will release the fat and it could puddle at the bottom of your slow cooker. I always use lean beef to make sure this does not happen. I suggest 85/15.
- Don’t overmix! I also mix until just combined and then form my loaf.
- Make extra sauce for serving. My kids love the sauce so I usually will mix some up and heat it on the stovetop so we have extra when serving.
