Slow cookers make preparing delicious, home cooked meals so easy they’re practically effortless! Instead of having to bang around the kitchen making all of the separate components that most dishes call for, you just mix up a few basic ingredients and then combine them all together in the pot. Set the timer, put the lid on, and you’re good to go!
While many traditional recipes have been pared down and honed specifically for crock pot cooking, this easy meatloaf one retains all of its classic ingredients. Make this soon and you won’t be disappointed! The sweet, savory aroma will greet you when you walk in the door and dinner will be ready, warm, and waiting. What more could you ask for? Everything you’ll need is listed below and directions on how to prepare the slow cooked meatloaf follow:
5 potatoes, 2 pounds of ground beef, ½ pound hot Italian turkey sausage with casings removed, 1 large onion, 2 eggs, 1 ½ cup ketchup, divided in half (so that you have two ¾ cups of it), ¾ cup crushed crackers, butter-flavored, 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar, 2 teaspoons salt, ½ teaspoon yellow mustard, black pepper, to taste
Start by peeling the potatoes. Cut them into 2-inch chunks and place them in the bottom of a large crock pot. Mix together the beef, sausage, onion, eggs, cracker crumbs, ¾ cup of ketchup, and salt in a separate bowl. Make sure to combine the ingredients together really well and then form them into the shape of a loaf. Add the loaf to the slow cooker, placing them directly on top of the potatoes!
Now combine and stir up the brown sugar, mustard, and remaining ¾ cup of ketchup. Spread the resulting sauce evenly across the top of the meat loaf before placing the lid on the slow cooker. Cook on the low setting for 6-10 hours, the time may vary depending on your crock pot. When the time is up simply drain any excess liquid from the pot and then serve!
