Ingredients

Meatloaf

  • 2 lbs. ground chuck
  • 2 tsp. sea salt
  • 1 tsp. black pepper
  • ½ tsp. garlic powder
  • ½ tsp. onion powder
  • ¼ tsp. dried parsley
  • ¼ tsp. dried thyme
  • ½ cup bread crumbs see notes for gluten-free option
  • ½ cup chicken stock
  • 3 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 Tbsp. ketchup
  • 2 eggs

Glaze

  • ½ cup ketchup
  • ¼ cup brown sugar

Instructions

  • Add ground beef to a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Then add the dry ingredients to the ground beef and mix well with your hands or a fork.
  • In the same bowl used for the dry ingredients, whisk together the wet ingredients. Then add the wet ingredients to the ground beef mixture and mix well to combine.
  • Form one large circular loaf with the beef mixture and place in a steamer basket. Add 1 cup of water to the pot along with a 2-inch trivet. Place the basket on top of the trivet. Lock lid and cook for 16 minutes at high pressure.
  • Meanwhile, combine ½ cup ketchup and the brown sugar with a whisk.
  • Once cook time is complete, allow pressure to release naturally (about 10 minutes).
  • Transfer meatloaf to a baking sheet and generously glaze with the ketchup mixture.
  • Place under a high broiler for about 3-5 minutes, or until desired caramelization occurs.

Notes

Doneness: The center of the meatloaf should reach 160°F before serving.
Gluten-free: We have tested this recipe with 4C Gluten Free Plain Crumbs. Also check the current label on your Worcestershire sauce, since formulas and labeling can vary by product and market.
