Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3 Pounds Extra Lean Ground Beef
  • 1 1/4 Cups Italian Seasoned Bread Crumbs
  • 1 Cup Milk
  • 4 Large Eggs
  • 2 Packets Onion Soup Mix (or homemade)
  • 2 Teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • 2 Cups Ketchup
  • 1 Cup Brown Sugar (light or dark)
  • 2 Teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce

Instruction

  • Line an oval shaped 6 quart or larger with a slow cooker liner (optional but makes the removal of the cooked meatloaf easier as well as aids in clean up). If you do not use a liner spray the slow cooker insert with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl combine together with clean hands the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, onion soup mix, salt, pepper and ground ginger.
  • Add the meatloaf mixture to the bottom of prepared slow cooker pressing and shaping it into a loaf shape keeping it away from the sides of the slow cooker.
  • Cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 7 hours or until a meat thermometer inserted in the center reads 160° F when inserted into the middle of the meatloaf.
  • About 1/2 hour before the meatloaf is done cooking mix together the ketchup, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce in a small mixing bowl and evenly spread the mixture over the top of the meatloaf. Finish cooking.
  • Carefully remove the meatloaf from the slow cooker by either pulling the liner with the meatloaf inside or using two spatulas to lift the meatloaf up and out of the slow cooker. Place on a serving platter if desired.
