Rett Main Course
Kategori American
serveringsstørrelse 4 people

Ingredienser
  

  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 1 cup crushed Ritz crackers
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 8 ounces cheddar cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, crushed Ritz crackers, eggs, milk, onion, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix gently until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Divide the meat mixture in half. Press one half firmly into the bottom of a loaf pan to form an even base.
  • Arrange the cheddar cheese cubes in a single layer down the center of the meat base, leaving a small border around the edges.
  • Place the remaining meat mixture on top and press it down to seal the edges completely so the cheese stays enclosed during baking.
  • Bake for 60 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees. Remove from the oven and let the loaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Press the meat layers together tightly around the cheese cubes to prevent any leakage. If the cheese you use is very sharp, reduce the salt slightly to keep the overall flavor balanced. Leftovers reheat well in a covered skillet over low heat with a splash of broth to restore moisture.
