But, using them makes for cheap filler and it allows you to use grades of meat which don't have enough fat on their own to bind together properly.

Meatloaf is just fucking disgusting and was only ever meant to ration out meat as far as you could go, while hiding how shitty it was with spices and fucking ketchup. It's the epitome of boomer and child food. Sugary meat logs. No fucking wild mushroom veal demi-glace is going to fix it.

Meatloaf night at my midwest families dystopian hellhole was always the worst and it looked exactly like that thing you sliced, pale and grainy HFCS saturated. I generally begged friends to invite me for dinner at their house, no matter what it would be it would be better.

Tbf, my parents stupidly raised 4 spawn and although they had decent jobs, money was tight, cause muh reasons. But it's still no excuse to feed us garbage, hamberders , tacos or burritos would have been a better use for their shitty factory farmed ground beef.

Because bread or something similar is what separates the texture of a meatball or meatloaf from a burger patty. Burgers are much denser and firmer, generally, because the bread (usually soaked to make a panade) both lightens and softens the meat mixture. You can do it without, absolutely, but the texture is pretty different.

Anyone know what the difference between adding eggs it and no eggs? I used 2 eggs. Was just curious. And to the people complaining about HFCS, just don't put it in? Or don't buy a ketchup with it? I use ketchup with sugar. Some recipe call you to mix in the ketchup with the meat while some just call for you to use it as a glaze. I prefer mixing it in because i like to taste it in the meat.

It'll be crumbly without the eggs, if it even holds together at all.

>> No.11796034

its supposed to be a way of stretching meat. I use probably a whole cup of breadcrumbs (lightly toasted in the oven first) for every pound of meat. Also, you should let the breadcrumbs, once toasted, mush up in some milk or cream, enough to saturate them. Also add eggs. You want a fair bit of filler, it is meatloaf. Also, adding berry puree (frozen fruit will do, mashed up or pureed) to the ketchup/brown sugar (molasses or date syrup are welcome too) glaze is nice.

Try using ground beef from the farmer's market. It has a les slimy texture. If you make it from scratch, toast your breadcrumbs, add some cheese (parmesan or whatever else you want), you can add pre-cooked, chopped bacon, caramelized onions, ,fruit purees.

You could even just chop up nice cuts of meat like tartare fine if you wanted and then add the binders to make it fancier. Meatloaf is an idea.

I wanted to use up some overripe blackberries from the farmer's market. In the case of berries with seeds you should strain them first. I added about 1/2 cup blackberry puree to both the glaze and the meatloaf as I recall. Was great. Do you not like fruit?
