Trying to Get Pregnant

Meatloaf in the crockpot?

Anyone done it? I'm going to work from 1-5 and then spin class from 5:30-6:30 and told DH we were having meatloaf tonight. He will be home around 7 and I usually like to have dinner ready so that we aren't eating after 8. I am cooking it on low in the crock pot, but it didn't call for any liquid in the crock pot and that worries me. Do you think I should add liquid?

Re: Meatloaf in the crockpot?

  • No, it will make some liquid, I would think.  Sounds yummy!
  • I've never done it, but ground meat has a lot of juice already in it.  You should be fine without anything extra, but if you are anxious about it, put a little water in the bottom, it shouldnt hurt at all. 

    Good Luck with it!

  • The recipe I use does not require liquid either. The fat from the meet should be enough. It will be really yummy.
  • I want meatloaf for dinner now

  • i'm puzzled. Meatloaf in the crockpot? 

    Wouldn't just be meatloaf flavored beef because it wouldn't be as solid as normal meatloaf, right?

  • I add a 1/4 cup of water, but I also cook w. 96% lean beef.

    Its moist, and does not fall apart, so it is a meatloaf.

  • Can someone post their recipe? I'd love to try this. I make meatloaf a lot when it's cold out (its like 65 today in NY) and it would be so much easier this way!  TIA
  • 2 1/4 pounds ground beef
    1/4 cup ketchup
    2 tablespoon brown sugar
    1 egg
    1 cup breadcrumbs or crushed crackers
    2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
    1 large onion (diced)
    1/4 cup water

    Mix all ingredients in a large bowl.

    Form into a meatloaf shape that will fit into your crock pot.

    Place meat loaf in crock pot and top with an additional 2 tablespoons ketchup.

    Cover and cook on low for approximately 8 hours.

    This is what I had laying around the house, so that's what I used.
