Ingredients

• 2 pounds Ground beef
• 0.75 cups Breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cups Milk
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 cups Yellow onion, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1.5 pounds Russet potatoes, scrubbed and cut into quarters
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Dried parsley (for seasoning potatoes)
• 0.5 teaspoons Paprika (optional, for seasoning potatoes)
• 0.5 cups Ketchup (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, finely chopped onion, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix with your hands or a spoon until combined, being careful not to overmix.

Step 2

Form the mixture into a loaf shape that will fit inside your crock pot. Place it on a large piece of aluminum foil and fold the edges up slightly to create a foil 'tray' (this will help lift the meatloaf out more easily after cooking). Set aside.

Step 3

Add the quartered potatoes to a separate mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with dried parsley, paprika (if using), salt, and pepper to taste. Toss to coat.

Step 4

Place the foil-wrapped meatloaf into the center of your crock pot, ensuring it sits level. Arrange the seasoned potatoes around the meatloaf along the edges of the crock pot.

Step 5

Spread the ketchup evenly over the top of the meatloaf as a glaze.

Step 6

Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on low for 5-6 hours, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (70°C).

Step 7

Once cooked, carefully lift the meatloaf out of the crock pot using the foil. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Step 8

Serve the meatloaf slices alongside the tender, seasoned potatoes. Garnish with additional parsley, if desired.
