The Revisitation Of The Meatloaf Hot Sub Sandwich Recipes

MEATLOAF SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small skillet, heat oil over medium; add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly, until brick-red in color and fragrant, 3 minutes. In a large bowl, combine beef, onion mixture, crackers, cheese, eggs, horseradish, Worcestershire, salt, and pepper.
• On a parchment-lined baking sheet, use your hands to form mixture into a 9-inch loaf. Bake until cooked through, about 40 minutes. Let rest 15 minutes before cutting into thick slices. To serve, place meatloaf slices between bread, topped with lettuce, pickles, and ketchup.

ULTIMATE MEATLOAF WITH TANGY SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
• In a bowl add all of the ingredients for the Tangy Sauce and whisk; set aside.
• In a medium bowl add the bread, panko and milk. Press the bread into the milk and set aside. Allow to soak for 5 minutes.
• In a large bowl add the rest of the meatloaf ingredients and the bread/panko/milk mixture. Gently mix until combined. Do not overimx as the meatloaf will be tough. Transfer the mixture to the baking sheet and using your hands, form a loaf that is about 12 inches long, 6 inches wide, and about 2 1/2-3 inches tall. The loaf should be smooth and have rounded edges. This will help the loaf stay together when serving.
• Bake for 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and spread Tangy Sauce all over the top and sides of the meatloaf. You'll use about 1 -1 1/2 cups of sauce. Save the leftover sauce for meatloaf sandwiches. Put the meatloaf back into the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes or until a thermometer inserted reads 165F.
• Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes before cutting.

ALL-AMERICAN DOWN-HOME PATRIOTIC MEATLOAF SANDWICH

Steps:

• For the meatloaf: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the oil and onions, season with some salt and saute until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and saute for 1 to 2 minutes without letting the garlic brown. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• In a large bowl, add the crackers, milk, mustard, Worcestershire, hot sauce and eggs. Whisk together, and then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the meat, parsley and cooled onions. Mix with your hands until evenly combined. Bake a tester meatloaf patty to taste and test the seasoning, adjusting as necessary. Using your hands, gently form the meatloaf into a loaf about 9-by-5-inches. Place on a baking sheet.
• For the glaze: In a small bowl, combine the ketchup, brown sugar and apple cider vinegar. Slather half of the glaze over the meatloaf. Make sure not to touch the meatloaf with the spoon and then put that spoon back into the glaze; don't cross contaminate, people! Bake until the meat registers 160 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 1 hour. Let rest for 20 minutes before slicing for sandwiches.
• For the sandwich build: Place a slice of cheese on the bottom griddled bun, then a slice of meatloaf, spoon some extra glaze on the loaf, pop on a few pickles and top with crispy onions. Repeat to make 3 more sandwiches.

THE BEST MEATLOAF SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees . Lightly spray a 9 x 5 loaf pan with cooking spray.
• In a small skillet, add the onions and butter. Sprinkle with the salt and cook over medium heat until they are soft and translucent - around 10 minutes.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the apple butter, apple cider vinegar, and hot sauce. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, add the cooked onions and mix in the ground beef, egg, and crushed crackers. Add in 2/3 of the apple butter hot sauce. (Reserve the rest for making the sandwiches.)
• Press the meat mixture into the loaf pan. Brush the top with an additional 2 tablespoons of apple butter, and then bake for 1 hour until done.
• For the sandwich, heat a large skillet over medium heat.
• Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. Place 4 slices of bread butter-side down in the skillet.
• Add a slice of cheese to each slice of bread, and then a slice of the prepared meatloaf (above) to each slice of bread.
• Spoon the reserved apple butter hot sauce on top of the meatloaf slices. Add a leaf of lettuce to each, followed by another slice of cheese.
• Top with another piece of buttered bread butter-side up. Press the sandwiches slightly and flip to grill the other side. Serve hot.

LEFTOVER MEATLOAF SANDWICH

Steps:

• Place meatloaf slices in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Lay 2 Cheddar cheese slices over each. Cook until meatloaf is heated through and browned on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip 1 piece of meatloaf over the other so cheese is in the middle.
• Spread mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard over toast. Add cheesy meatloaf and sandwich the toast together.
