Boston Market Meatloaf By Todd Wilbur

Total Time: 1 hr 25 mins Preparation Time: 25 mins Cook Time: 1 hr

Ingredients

• 1 cup tomato sauce
• 1 1/2 tablespoons kraft barbecue sauce
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 1/2 lbs lean ground sirloin
• 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 dash garlic powder

Recipe

• 1 preheat oven to 400°f.
• 2 combine the tomato sauce, barbecue sauce and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat.
• 3 heat the mixture until it begins to bubble, stirring often, and then remove it from the heat.
• 4 in a large bowl, add all but 2 tablespoons of the tomato sauce to the meat.
• 5 use a large wooden spoon or your hands to work the sauce into the meat until it is very well combined.
• 6 combine the remaining ingredients with the ground sirloin-- flour, salt, onion powder and ground pepper.
• 7 use the wooden spoon or your hands to work the spices and flour into the meat.
• 8 load the meat into a loaf pan (preferably a meatloaf pan with two sections which allows the fat to drain, but if you don't have one of those a regular loaf pan will work).
• 9 wrap foil over the pan and place it into the oven for 30 minutes.
• 10 after 30 minutes, take the meatloaf from the oven, remove the foil and, if you aren't using a meatloaf pan, drain the fat.
• 11 using a knife, slice the meatloaf all the way through into 8 slices while it is still in the pan.
• 12 this will help to cook the center of the meatloaf.
• 13 pour the remaining 2 tablespoons of sauce over the top of the meatloaf, in a stream down the center.
• 14 don't spread the sauce.
• 15 place the meatloaf back into the oven, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes or until it is done.
• 16 remove and allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving.
