Meatloaf Filler

History For Meatloaf Filler

According to food historian Andrew Smith, the oldest published recipe for modern American meatloaf dates from the late 1870s and instructs the cook to finely chop “any cold meat you have.”

He predicted that the meat would be beef because New Englanders butchered their cows before winter when feeding them would be more difficult, and tried to squeeze every last ounce of meat out of them, looking for uses for the inexpensive portions.
