Updated and adapted from Josie Voorhees’ recipe for Deviled Meatloaf appearing in Cooking Favorites: Recipes From Employees and Friends of Gettysburg National Military Park and Eisenhower National Historic Site (undated)
2poundsmeatloaf mix (a commerical mix of veal, pork and beef) or 90% lean ground beef
¾cupfresh bread crumbsdried is fine too!
2tablespoonscoarsely chopped pickled jalapeño
8ozcanned tomato sauce, divided use
1-2tablespoonsdehydrated onions
salt
freshly ground black pepper
1egg
2tablespoonsground mustard, divided use
1-2teaspoonsliquid from the jar of pickled jalapeños
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375. Light grease a standard loaf pan. I prefer using a meatloaf pan, see note.
In a large bowl, mix meat, bread crumbs, pepper, 1/2 can sauce, dehydrated onions, half of the ground mustard, salt, pepper and the egg. Shape into loaf in the prepared pan.
In a small bowl, whisk together the rest of the sauce, mustard and pickle juice. Pour over loaf in an even layer.
Bake about 45 minutes or until fully cooked. Allow to stand 5 minutes then slice and serve.
Notes
I love my Wilton meatloaf pan. I cannot recommend it enough if you ever make meatloaf, it drains the juices right off so you never have soggy meatloaf. We got one as a wedding present and when it got damaged, I immediately purchased a replacement. It is a real meatload game changer.
