I decided to make something different with my meatloaf today--I wanted something moist and yet had a crunchy outer crust...I think I pulled it off--I didn't have any eggs so I used something else as a hold together agent..It worked out just fine...

How To Make meatloaf with a crunchy topping

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 375^. Line a cookie sheet with foil -making a flat surface with the edges turned up so the grease will not seep out..spray lightly.Set aside. Place the Stuffing in a plastic bag and roll coarsely; place them out evenly on a sheet of waxed paper.
  • Step 2
    Place the meat in a large bowl and add all the ingredients..except the stuffing crumbs, these make up the crust; mix well- I use plastic gloves or you can use baggies on my hands and mix the heck out of the mixture..
  • Step 3
    Form the mixture into a big fat log-or like a big ham. Place it on the crumbs and then turn over to coat the other side and any spots without crumbs. Place loaf on the sprayed foil trough.
  • Step 4
    Bake in oven at 375^ for 30 minutes then turn oven down to 350^. Continue baking for another 40 minutes or until center of meat reaches 160^. Remove meat to a serving platter , using 2 egg spatulas.Enjoy! Hope you like it....
