I need recipes for stuffed meatloaf. My mom had one but it is so worn that we can't make out what it says and?

she does not remember what it called for, so I guess I'm in need for a new one...Also..I am not fond of pork chops, because they are always dry and tough..But my husband loves them, anyone have a good idea on how to make pork more tender and juicy?





What are some good side dishes for Meatloaf and Pork chops?I need recipes for stuffed meatloaf. My mom had one but it is so worn that we can't make out what it says and?
I am a former chef and make one similar to the second lady's one only I used turkey and turkey sausage and then stuff it with a box of Stove Top with an egg mixed in. I like to add different flacours to my beef and pork mix mealoafs, stuufed with cheeses, hard cooked eggs, ham and veg, spianch, mushrooms and onions even cooked sausage like garlic or hot Italian.





For more tender pork chops braising them in a sauce can make them tender just brown, then add the sauce and veg and slowly bake in the oven, I brine my pork chops, the night before I bring 2 cups of water to the boil with 1/2 cup of salt, 1/3 cup brown sugar and a tablespoon of pickling spice or your choice, sliced garlic and a chopped cooking onion, I let this cool and then I pour it over chops in a large ZipLok bag place on a plate or in a dish and let them sit overnight, the next day I take them out brown them and the it is up to you sauce or just smothered in onions and mushrooms with a wine glaze or a bit of balsamic vinegar to brighten them up, cook them slow and covered after browning so the do not dry out.





Side I like scalloped or mashed potato's, I use sour cream and green onion in my mash, a fresh veg, beans are now in season, peas, carrots or a combo, even a bit of sauteed zucchini with tomato's and green pepper for colour is nice, there is no real end to the combinations, only your imagination.I need recipes for stuffed meatloaf.

i dont know about stuffed but if


You Put A crascont and put on top and cook normaly or put tomato paste and do the same Report Abuse

When I make meatloaf I ';stuff'; it with spinach and mozzarella cheese. You can make it jelly roll style and seal the edges , or make it in a 13x9 pan and line the whole pan, put cheese, spinach, and cheese, then cover with meat mixture and seal together. As for pork chops, Cook them ONLY as long as you have to. Crock Pots also make meat more tender.
I've stuffed my meatloaf with almost anything from cheese and chopped bacon to prepared stuffing. I've also put ramen when i was out of bread crumbs and broke.





sides always good corn on the cob and green beans or salad and mash potatoes.
cook the pork chops slow overnight in a crock pot whith water and your fav spices makes em almost fall apart
