Meatloaf w/ Roasted Potatoes

I’ve come around to actually liking meatloaf after making it for a family friend a few times, and according to IG feedback, many of you like it too! I mean, it’s a large meatball, so the kids liked it, and I do love the great flavor of Worcestershire.

This recipe makes either one very large meatloaf or two smaller ones. When I made two, I passed one to a friend. With the potatoes and some greens, it’s a well balanced meal for home or to gift.

I would say with some greens, you could easily feed 8 with the total yield here. Itried to layer the meatloaf and potato timing. You can cook the potatoes on the rack under the meatloaf, placing them in the oven halfway through the meatloaf’s cooking time. When you pull the meatloaf out to rest, crank the heat to get more browning on the potatoes.

If you have a butcher who will sell you fresh ground beef as opposed to the blocks, it yields a much less compact final result.
