The heat from the hardboiled eggs cooks the meatloaf witch hard boils the egg.

>>18099390
>meatloaf

>>18099401
Why? It can be great as a lower/middle class comfort food. Try it again.

Why not put hard boiled eggs in everything? I had a pork bun with pieces of hard boiled egg in it once and it was great.

>>18099390
I've done it before, but didn't care for it.
It doesn't seem to anything for the meatloaf, or the egg.

>>18099413
OK, but I'm taking about putting eggs whole and dead center in the loaf. It can't impart any flavor, can it?

>>18099390
>>18099420
For porfags, idiots. If you're making it in an actual loaf pan in particular you can use a lot of space with the eggs

>>18099450
...or just not use a pan?
...or not fill the pan as deep?
Maybe you aren't as smart as you think you are?

>>18099412
I have nothing against any form of comfort food it just seams unnecessary and a lot of work when I'd prefer just eating ground meat with some seasoning which takes 5 minutes to cook.

>>18099466
>a lot of work
kek ok
go back to your gaming

>>18099488
>reading comprehension
a lot of work relative to taste. Why would I spend 30 minutes mashing random shit together and baking a pile of shit when I could spend 5 minutes on something that tastes better

>>18099390
Giant Scotch egg loaf. What's the problem?

>>18099510
What are you doing to your mix that you need to spend a half hour on it? Mine take about five minutes to prep.

>>18099515
Scotch eggs =/= meatloaf

>>18099520
>five minutes to prep
but I'm already sitting down eating something that tastes better and you haven't started cooking

>>18099564
Does Kraft mac and cheese tax you too?

>>18099606
You're right better add leftover garbage, loaf it, and wait while I bake it

>>18099631
>leftover garbage
whatever, I use good ground chuck and no veggies
you just stick to your cold soup out of a can
let's move on

>>18099515
>Giant Scotch egg loaf.
Aside from novelty, what's the point of a Scotch egg?

>>18099699
Who knows? I want that bridesmaid. A few shots at the reception and she's mine.

Don't let your meat loaf

>>18099988
<rim shot>

>Also, I'm a meat purist so I don't bother with glazes and sauces. I don't like drowning it in ketchup
ok, you have opinions, you're humble bragging or something else?

>>18099390
Stuffing. Eggs, spinach, ham and\or some other vegetables add variety to flavour, texture and then is not just a slab of cooked meat.

>>18099450
Being poor is not really a good answer to "what flavor it adds"

>>18099699
>what is the point of a stuffed meatball
Eating it? Why there's so many comments about "what's the purpose of this or that"

>>18099510
you put taste in it if you know how to. You probably ate some other guy\gal cooking and it tasted bland to you

Also meatloaf is probably one of the fastest and easiest recipe with meat

>>18099699
I wish I was that bride

>>18099390
Hard boiled eggs in meatloaf in a Filipino thing.
They call it Embutido. Its usually steamed.
Just remember, if you see something gross and off-putting, blame the Philippines. They are responsible for many of the world's awful things.

>>18100848
looks tasty tho
are those raisins?

>>what is the point of a stuffed meatball
>Eating it?
I could eat spinach and Ice cream, or maple syrup on rice. I'm just not sure why anyone would.

>>18100859
rice is good for sweet stuff, they make cakes is many countries with it
But eggs goes well with meat, people brainfart about boiled eggs and they will probably eat sunny side on a patty

>>18100867
>But eggs goes well with meat,
Fried or poached, yeah.
I made steak and eggs for dinner last night,
medium rare N.Y. strip, eggs sunny side up with runny yolks, home fries, and asparagus on the side.
But hard boiled? Sorry, that's just wrong.

>people brainfart about boiled eggs and they will probably eat sunny side on a patty
EXACTLY, that's my point.

>>18100927
you confute your same point?
how many threads are you watching at the same time?

ngl this is pretty good survival food and I'm sure it's not bad. was just thinking if you made your 'loaf with sausage seasonings and used pork it might be very nice for brekky

>>18100948
hard boiled egg inside sausage
isn't that a Scotch egg?

>>18099390
To have an egg with it? What the fuck is this thread, are you an alien?

>>18100998
>are you an alien?
I can't tell you
yet

>>18100854
it's Filipino
probably rat droppings

>>18100933
>you confute your same point?
No, obviously.
I'm pointing out you yourself claim that people agree with my point.

>>18101042
>people brainfart about boiled eggs and they will probably eat sunny side on a patty
EXACTLY, that's my point.
>I made steak and eggs for dinner last night, But hard boiled? Sorry, that's just wrong.

>t.unironically eats meatballs

>>18101052
That's a lot of words.
Not sure how you see any of it as me "confuting" my point.

I've heard of mixing raw eggs into the meat along with bread crumbs to extend it, but never heard of hard boiled eggs. Do you just mash them in?

>>18101257
>I've heard of mixing raw eggs into the meat
I've never heard of _not_ using raw egg, but I'm pretty sure it's done as a binder,not filler/stretcher.

>>18101064
N

>>18101264
Meatloaf/-balls stay together just fine without the raw egg. Just mash the meat together real well.

Imagine not eating meatballs

>>18101257
No, they put them whole and dead center in the loaf while prepping it, so you get a nice round egg slice in every serving.

>>18101302
>you get a nice round egg slice in every serving.
Seems unlikely to get an egg slice in every serving. How many eggs are you putting in there?

>>18101323
I don't do it at all. Some people do, and they put a few in there.

>is it just for looks?
that's it. The eggs are sliced across in the slices. But they're cooked twice, so rubbery and nasty. Leave them out.

>>18099390
>Also, I'm a meat purist so I don't bother with glazes and sauces. I don't like drowning it in ketchup.
Ketchup has a raw taste, so I'd not use it to drown out bites you consume,either. Though, you could put some ketchup into the mixture when making the loaf, along with mustard, a lot of people do.

I put together a basting glaze that cooks on the top and sides during the last half of cooking. I probably slather it over the top 3x and let it cook into a sticky glaze that browns well. In a small bowl, heinz chili sauce plus brown sugar, ginger or makoto dressing, plus chinese 5 spice or more just allspice (which is part of the chili sauce recipe), lots of black pepper, splash of worchestershire, mustard powder, garlic powder. Sometimes, I drizzle a bit of molasses or honey. Thin layer on top, usually using the back of a spoon to smooth it out. Repeat twice more every 15 minutes, until thick glazed dried on top.
Zero need to supplement with any sauce at the plate while eating it.
Your meatleaf is small, likely 1lb. If I am making meatloaf, it's going to be 3lbs of beef, and a whole carton of mushrooms with flavorful celery, onion, garlic, parsley.

>>18101323
One of these

>>18101342
>chinese 5 spice
nope

>>18099390
OP, one of the benefits of a meatloaf is preplanned leftovers.
A cold meatloaf sandwich is godly. So, would I mind a cold slice of hardboiled egg at that point, oh hell no. It'd be delicious the next day.

>>18099390
yeah I'm sure you're a huge meat purist you faggot lmao

>>18101359
>A cold meatloaf sandwich is godly.

>>18099390
probably a french invention. looks like barf

>>18101344
Damn, that must have been one long chicken

>>18101385
No, they save them up and shit out one long egg at once. Kinda like the aftermath of being constipated for chickens.
