Description

This crockpot meatloaf offers an irresistible flavor with simple preparation. With ground beef, eggs, and seasoned breadcrumbs, it’s a delightful comfort food perfect for quick dinners.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ⅓ cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • black pepper (to taste)
  • ¾ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons dried minced onion
  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • ⅓ cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon yellow mustard

Instructions

  1. Prepare a foil sling by placing heavy duty aluminum foil in the bottom and up two sides of a 5-6 quart slow cooker. Spray with cooking spray.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and all the seasonings. Add breadcrumbs and dried minced onion, then set aside for 5 minutes.
  3. Add the ground beef to the egg mixture and mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  4. Shape the mixture into a large oval loaf and place it on the foil sling.
  5. Prepare the glaze by mixing the glaze ingredients; set half aside in the fridge. Spread the other half over the meatloaf.
  6. Cover and cook on HIGH for 2.5-3 hours or LOW for 5-6 hours until the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
  7. Once cooked, top with the reserved glaze. Scrape off any undesirable spots if necessary.
  8. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing; drain juices before lifting the meatloaf from the slow cooker.

Notes

Ensure the slow cooker is properly covered to retain moisture and heat.
Adjust cooking time based on the size of your meatloaf to ensure even cooking.
Let the meatloaf rest before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.
