Description
My take on the Filipino dish "Embutido". I love this meatloaf and I consider it to be my ultimate comfort food. Enjoy!
Ingredients
- 4 slices sandwich bread, torn into small pieces
- ⅓ cup milk, or more as needed
- 2 ¼ pounds lean ground beef
- 3 (4.5 ounce) cans Vienna sausage, minced
- 6 eggs, beaten
- ½ cup grated Cheddar cheese
- ½ cup minced sweet pickles
- 1 red bell pepper, minced
- 1 (1.5 ounce) box raisins
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- aluminum foil
Directions
- 1. Place bread in a large bowl and pour milk over top, just until pieces are moistened; soak for several minutes. Add ground beef, Vienna sausage, eggs, Cheddar cheese, pickles, bell pepper, raisins, salt, and pepper. Mix together until thoroughly combined.
- 2. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of beef mixture to the hot skillet; cook and stir until browned and crumbly, 4 to 6 minutes. Taste and add salt and pepper if necessary.
- 3. Press remaining beef mixture into 2 loaf pans and cover with aluminum foil.
- 4. Fill the water reservoir of a steamer and place loaf pans in the steam tray, using multiple tiers if necessary. Steam meatloaves until no longer pink in the center, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Allow loaves to cool to room temperature and then place in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- 5. Slice loaves into 1/2-inch slices and fry in a hot, nonstick skillet.
