Video Transcript

"Hi this is Rich Buccola here in NYC and on behalf of Expert Village today we're going to show you some great comfort food and making meatloaf. See I got my loaf looking like a loaf now how did I do that I just flatted her out I'm playing with it I have a flat board so I can actually use the board by pressing down. You see it gets it to a nice shape I can do each side by pressing down to do that side and that's your shape so again wash your hands always when working with raw meat. You don't want to be touching things and touching your counters tops and so wash your hands keep your hands washed that's important with raw meat, always keep your hands cleaned. I come right here I take my casserole dish do you have the basters no, your going to have a lot of drippings from this remember I didn't use lean beef I used the regular ground. That's probably in a 60% 70% lean you want those drippings put it in the center and you are ready to put this in the oven so over to your oven it's almost ready. Look that's how simple it is you can actually put this in the morning get it done before I can have this ready what 6, 7 minutes have it ready. Cover it with sedan wrap put it in your refrigerator when you get home from work take it off preheat your oven pop it in the oven, you got dinner almost ready. How long does it cook 2 lbs your going to cook for about 45 minutes to an hour and your going to baste probably after like 40 minutes your going to start basting it to get it that juiciness. You want to get it juicy it's going to be brown on the outside juicy in the middle it's meatloaf here on Expert Village."
