As with a lot of my recipes, this was handed down from my grandmother, to my mother, and then to me (and my siblings). This recipe has always been a staple in our household and we LOVE it! I love all kinds of meatloaves, but nothing beats grandma's!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
  • 2/3 cup oatmeal, uncooked
  • 1/4 cup white onions, diced
  • 1/2 cup green pepper, diced
  • 4 ounces button mushroom, thinly-medium sliced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
  • - ketchup

How To Make grandma's meatloaf

  • Step 1
    Pre-heat oven to 350°.
  • Step 2
    Mix wet ingredients in a mixing bowl with vegetables.
  • Step 3
    Mix dry ingredients in a separate bowl.
  • Step 4
    Pour dry ingredients into mixing bowl with wet ingredients and mix together.
  • Step 5
    Place meatloaf mixture on a greased cookie sheet. I like to cook my Meatloaf on a cookie sheet rather than in a meatloaf dish (more room for that yummy caramelized ketchup!). I spread it somewhat thin (perhaps an inch high) and then smother in ketchup to taste. I use enough ketchup to get it nice and caramelized and still have a slight bit of juiciness underneath.
  • Step 6
    Put on the lower oven rack and cook for 1 1/2 - 2 hours until meat is thoroughly cooked and ketchup is nice a caramelized.
