Bacon Cheddar Meatloaf

Posted by Bradley47 | 9:09 AM |

Ingredients:

Loaf :

  • 2 pieces bacon, diced
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 pound ground beef chuck
  • 8 ounces ground pork
  • 8 ounces ground veal
  • 8 ounces sharp cheddar, shredded (2 1/3 cups)
  • 1/3 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley

Glaze:

  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons water

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Cook bacon in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, until crispy and fat renders, about 10 minutes. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon to a paper-towel lined plate, reserving renderings in the skillet. Cook the onions and garlic in the pan drippings until brown, about 15 minutes. Let cool.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl whisk the eggs, mustard, hot sauce, Worcestershire, cream, salt, and pepper. Add the meat, cheese, parsley, and cooked onion. Chop and add the bacon. Mix with a fork until evenly blended. Whisk the glaze ingredients together in a bowl.

Dampen hands with water and on a foil-lined cookie sheet, pat mixture into a loaf shape. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf registers 155 degrees F, about 1 hour. Spread the glaze onto the meatloaf after about 50 minutes.
