Meatloaf always conjures up comforting memories of childhood. You remember playing barefoot in the front lawn when mom would call from the house, telling you the meatloaf was ready for dinner. The soothing, belly-warming dish brings to mind those happy, simple days, densely packed and lightly sweetened. This recipe for meatloaf burgers is a modern and quick-cooking version of the old favorite. The best part? The crispy outer crust that’s created when you cook each patty on a skillet.
