1. Prepare the meatloaf patties: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and paprika. Mix gently until everything is well combined.
2. Shape the patties: Divide the mixture into 6–8 equal portions and shape each one into a thick oval patty.

5. Assemble: Arrange the meatloaf patties over the potatoes. Spoon the sauce generously over each patty.
6. Slow cook: Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours, until the patties are cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
7. Serve: Carefully transfer the meatloaf patties and potatoes to plates. Spoon some of the delicious sauce from the slow cooker over the top and serve hot.
