Ingredients

For the Meatloaf

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 egg lightly beaten
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ cup crushed saltine crackers
  • cup onions finely chopped
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon rubbed sage
  • ½ teaspoon dried dill weed

For the Potatoes

  • 1 ½ pounds baby potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

For The Sauce

  • cup ketchup
  • cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  • Spray a large piece of foil with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Combine all the ingredients for the meatloaf in a medium-sized bowl. Mix until just combined (don't overwork the meat) and form into a rustic loaf on the prepared foil. Bring the sides of the foil up and around the loaf, making a "dish" for it to cook in. Make sure the walls are high enough to keep the cooking juices in.
  • Place the meatloaf in it's foil dish in one side of the slow cooker.
  • Place potatoes next to the meatloaf in the empty side of the slow cooker. Drizzle potatoes with the melted butter, and lightly stir the garlic and salt into the potatoes. 
  • Set slow cooker to cook for 6-8 hours on low. Cooking time will depend on your particular slow cooker as they all cook differently. The meatloaf is done when it's internal temperature reaches 170 degrees and the potatoes are fork tender. 
  • 30 minutes before you are ready to eat, combine the ketchup brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl.  Spoon sauce over the meatloaf, cover and continue cooking in the slow cooker until sauce is hot-- about 30 minutes.
