Last year, I saw the Perfect Meatloaf Pan advertised on television. It is a non-stick loaf pan with an elevated, aerated tray that facilitates even cooking, drains fat away from the meat, and allows the meatloaf to be easily lifted from the pan without falling apart. Being a fan of good meatloaf, I commented that the pan seemed like a good idea and indicated that I would like to have one. Apparently, Santa Clause heard my wish and I somehow managed to stay off of his "Bad List" because, on Christmas morning, instead of a lump of coal or a bag of switches, I was unwrapping a Perfect Meatloaf Pan.
I was really pleased to be the recipient of the pan but, having had more than one Christmas gift that just did not perform "as seen on TV", I was eager to try it for myself. So, just a few days following the Holiday festivities, with several pounds of ground beef burning a hole in the freezer, I whipped up a tried and true recipe and put the Perfect Meatloaf Pan to the test. An hour later, a perfect meatloaf was resting upon a serving tray. Attractive, moist, and delicious, the meatloaf was rapidly consumed without complaint and I was satisfied that the Perfect Meatloaf Pan had done just as it was advertised to do.
Of course, I was neither satisfied with just one test nor one meatloaf. Feeling a spirit of creativity, I next tried something that was a bit more complex: a venison meatloaf, topped with bacon, and glazed with apple jelly. I thought that the sticky topping might pose a challenge but once again, just an hour after putting it in the oven, I easily lifted an attractive meatloaf from the pan and placed it on a serving tray to rest. The conspicuous absence of leftovers attested that it was absolutely delicious too! I am quite happy with my Perfect Meatloaf Pan which performs just as claimed and exceeds expectations. I highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys good meatloaf.
