For the best flavor, use a blend of lean ground beef and ground chuck. This provides a good balance of flavor and moisture. Homemade breadcrumbs will give your meatloaf a superior texture and taste. Simply pulse a few slices of stale bread in a food processor until you have coarse crumbs. Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture! Overmixing can result in a tough meatloaf. Gently combine the ingredients until just blended. Consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the meatloaf mixture for a subtle kick. Serve with mashed potatoes and your favorite roasted vegetables for a complete and satisfying meal.
