Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef (80% lean)
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 0.5 cup Onion, finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons Ketchup
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Water
- 1 sheet Aluminum foil
Instructions
In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, onion, 2 tablespoons of ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Shape the mixture into a loaf approximately 6 inches long and 3 inches wide. Wrap the meatloaf loosely in aluminum foil, ensuring the edges are sealed but leaving enough space for juices to collect.
Add 1 cup of water to the bottom of your 2.5-quart pressure cooker. Insert the trivet or a steaming rack, ensuring it sits above the water level.
Place the wrapped meatloaf on the trivet inside the pressure cooker.
Seal the pressure cooker lid and set it to 'HIGH' pressure. Cook for 20 minutes.
Once the cooking time is complete, allow the pressure to release naturally for 5 minutes, then perform a quick release for the remaining pressure.
Carefully remove the wrapped meatloaf from the pressure cooker using tongs. Open the foil packet, being cautious of the steam, and transfer the meatloaf to a serving plate.
Brush the remaining 1 tablespoon of ketchup over the top of the meatloaf for a glossy, tangy finish.
Slice and serve the meatloaf warm with your favorite sides!
