Ingredients




1 pound ground beef
1 egg, beaten
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon seasoned salt (I use Lawry’s)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
½ cup sour cream
1 cup crushed crackers (I have only used Ritz)
(2 slices bread-optional for lining a loaf pan on the bottom)
For Glaze:
1 jar (12 oz) chili sauce (I recommend Homade)
1 teaspoon brown sugar

Preparation

1 Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix all meatloaf ingredients together, except the 2 bread slices and Glaze. Shape into a loaf. Line a 1½ quart loaf pan with the bread slices (the bread absorbs the grease and should be discarded after loaf is removed from oven). 2 In a small bowl combine the chili sauce and the brown sugar. Stir well. 3 Place meatloaf on top of the bread slices and pour the glaze mixture over the top. Bake loaf for 45-50 minutes, or until done.
