How To Make Stove Top Stuffing Meatloaf

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up.

Add ground beef, eggs, stuffing mix, water, and ketchup to a mixing bowl. Use a spoon to break up the meat and mix everything together. This will take a few minutes.

Once meatloaf mixture is ready, use your hands to shape it into a loaf and lay it on top of the parchment paper-lined cooking sheet.

Use a spoon or pastry brush to coat the top of the meatloaf in ketchup.

Place cooking sheet in oven and bake for 50 minutes. When the meatloaf is done, the middle should register at least 160 degrees with a meat thermometer. If so, pull meatloaf out of the oven and set it to rest on the countertop for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Cooking Tips

Can use any variety/flavor of stuffing mix
Bake meatloaf on cooking sheet or in loaf pan
You can top the meatloaf with ketchup or try BBQ sauce

What is the Benefit of Baking a Meatloaf on a Sheet Pan Rather Than in a Loaf Pan?

Both are great ways to bake a meatloaf, but if you place the meat loaf on a sheet pan, there is more surface area to crisp up. This means more flavor for your meatloaf!

Why Put Ketchup On Top of Your Meatloaf?

Brushing the top of the unbaked meatloaf with ketchup helps to seal the moisture inside. It also provides a tangy flavor that compliments the rich meatloaf.

What To Serve With Stove Top Stuffing Meatloaf

This classic family dish would be perfect with other home-cooked sides like Spinach Casserole, Instant Pot Red Potatoes, and Sautéed Carrots Recipe.
