My family is a meat and potatoes kind of family which includes meatloaf. The only issue I have with meatloaf is the amount of time it takes to cook. I usually don’t have a hour for it to cook. A while back, I found this recipe for meatloaf patties. I gave it a try and it has been a family favorite ever since.
This is much quicker to make meatloaf patties. Start by mixing the meat mixture together. This is comprised of egg, milk, onion, chili powder, salt, Worcestershire sauce, crushed saltine crackers, and ground beef. You shape the meat into patties and coat them in more crushed salting crackers.
Then you cook them cook them on the stove top in a skillet. I must admit my favorite part of these patties is the coating of crushed saltine crackers they get before making it into the pan. It ads a nice crispy texture you don’t get with regular meatloaf.
Now it will be much easier for you all to make meatloaf with this quick recipe! We like to serve them up with ketchup on the side. However, bbq sauce would more replicate the usual meatloaf sauce you find on most regular meatloaf.
