Baconwrappedmeatloaf Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• In a large bowl mix ground beef, eggs, diced onions, ketchup, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mixing with your hands is best. Mix it real well.
• Crush the crackers. I always crush the crackers while still in their sleeve.
• Pour crushed crackers into beef. Mix the crackers into the beef mixture well.
• Form into a loaf shape and set to the side.
• Take the bacon and divide it into even amount.
• Take 1 half of the bacon and lay side by side long ways.
• Fold every other bacon strip in half.
• Lay 1 of the other half of the reserved bacon strips across.
• Unfold the half folded bacon strip.
• Fold the other every other bacon strips that were not folded in the previous step.
• Lay a slice of bacon across and then unfold.
• Repeat until you run out of room.
• Start on the other half of the bacon strip until you have made a weave.
• Pace the loaf shaped beef mixture into the center on your bacon weave.
• Wap the weave around the beef loaf shaped mixture.
• Flip the bacon wrapped meat loaf upside down,making the ends of the bacon tuck under the loaf.
• Place the loaf in the center of the oven on a cookie sheet.
• It takes about an hour to cook.
• To make sure it is cooked all the way through, I sometimes use a meat thermometer but that isn't really needed. Sometimes I leave it in for 15 more minutes if I am worried it isn't cooked all the way.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) .
• Combine ground beef, ground sausage, crushed crackers, ketchup, onion, eggs, onion powder, and garlic powder in a large bowl until mixed thoroughly, using your hands for best results. Form mixture into a loaf shape.
• Weave strips of bacon into a basket weave pattern. Place meatloaf in the center and carefully lift and transfer to a loaf pan, so bacon is on the bottom and sides of the pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 1 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Allow to sit for 5 minutes before carefully flipping onto a platter.

Steps:

• For the glaze: Mix all ingredients in a small bowl; set aside.
• For the meatloaf: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat oil in a medium skillet. Add onion and garlic, saute until softened, about 5 minutes; set aside to cool.
• Mix eggs with thyme, salt, pepper, mustard, Worchestershire, pepper sauce, and milk or yogurt. Add egg mixture to meat in a large bowl, along with crackers, oatmeal or bread crumbs, parsley and cook onions and garlic; mix with a fork until evenly blended and meat mixture does not stick to bowl. (If mixture does stick, add additional milk, a couple tablespoons at a time, and continue stirring until mixture stops sticking.)
• Turn meat mixture onto a work surface. With wet hands, pat mixture into a loaf approximately 9 by 5 inches.
• Cover a wire rack with foil; prick foil in several places with a fork. Place a rack on a shallow roasting pan lined with foil for easy cleanup.
• Set formed loaf on rack. Brush loaf with all of glaze, then arrange bacon slices, crosswise, over loaf, overlapping them slightly and tucking them under to prevent curling.
• Bake loaf until bacon is crisp and loaf registers 160 degrees, about 1 hour. Cool for at least 20 minutes. Slice and serve

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Put a nonstick skillet on medium heat for a few minutes. Add the oil, chopped vegetables and creole seasoning. Saute for a few minutes until just tender and onions are translucent. Remove from heat to let cool.
• Line a loaf pan with the bacon so the ends hang over the side of the pan.
• Combine all other ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
• When the vegetables are cool enough to handle put in the mixing bowl. Mix all ingredients until well incorporated but not over mixed.
• Put meat mixture in the loaf pan, tamping down to compact and spread to the whole pan. Take the bacon ends and lay on top of the meat mixture. Your loaf should be entirely wrapped with bacon at this point.
• Cover loosely with foil and place in oven for 1 hour.
• After 1 hour remove the foil, increase the temperature to 425 and bake for another 20-25 minutes.
• Remove from oven and let set for 10-15 minutes.
• Slice and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the bread in a large bowl and pour the milk over. Let soak a few minutes, then squeeze through your fingers to combine. Add the egg, onion, parsley, dry mustard, caraway and coriander and mix well. Add the ground beef, ground pork, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and several grinds of pepper. Mix well with your hands to combine.
• In a small bowl, stir together the ketchup, steak sauce, mustard and brown sugar.
• Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and form into balls. Wrap each ball with 1 strip of bacon. Place, without touching, on a rimmed baking sheet or in a large braiser. Brush with a light coating of the glaze. Bake until the fat from the bacon has rendered, about 20 minutes.
• Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
• Brush the meatloaves with the remaining glaze. Continue to bake until the meatloaves are cooked through, the bacon is crisp and the glaze is shiny, 15 to 20 minutes more. Remove to a platter or plates to serve, leaving the drippings behind. (Save drippings for the Cheesy Mashed Potatoes & Gravy.)

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees F and arrange a rack in the upper third. Line a baking sheet with foil and set aside.
• Add the oil to a medium pan over medium heat. When the oil shimmers, add the onion, garlic and thyme and cook until softened, about 3 minutes; set aside.
• In a large bowl, add the eggs, buttermilk, mustard, Worcestershire, salt, and pepper. Whisk until the eggs are broken up and evenly combined. Add the onion mixture, ground pork, sausage, cracker crumbs, and parsley. Mix until thoroughly combined (don't squeeze mixture).
• Dampen your hands, and put the meat on the prepared baking sheet. Form the meat into a 9 by 5- inch loaf. Arrange the bacon across the top of the loaf and bake until the internal temperature is 155 degrees F, on an instant-read thermometer, about 55 to 65 minutes. Remove from the oven to a cutting board and let cool for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Combine panko, milk, pecorino, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, salt, eggs, pasilla chiles and Italian parsley in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Add the ground beef and hand-mix until well blended. Set aside.
• To make the glaze, combine ketchup, brown sugar, dry mustard and hot sauce in a small mixing bowl. Stir well using a rubber spatula. Set aside.
• Lay bacon down slightly overlapping side-by-side in a half-sheet pan. Spray a 9-by-4-inch loaf pan that's 6 inches high with nonstick spray. Place the beef mixture in the pan and pat down to form a meatloaf. Turn pan over and tap out the meatloaf into your hand. Place the meatloaf over the center of the bacon slices. Working with one slice at a time, fold ends of each bacon slice over the top of the meatloaf. Turn loaf over and place on a rack set in a baking sheet to allow the fat to drain while baking.
• Using the rubber spatula, spread half the glaze over the meatloaf. Bake for 1 hour, then apply remaining glaze. Continue to bake until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, about another 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine ground beef, eggs and 2 tablespoons of ketchup in a large bowl. Mix well, then add bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, oregano, basil, pepper, and onion. Set mixture aside. Line the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan with bacon, widthwise. Place half of the meat mixture across the top of the bacon. Lay 3 of the 4 pieces of Cheddar cheese across the center of the meat, lengthwise. Cover the cheese with the second half of the meat mixture and mold the meat into a loaf shape. Pull the ends of the bacon up and around the loaf. Spread 1 tablespoon of ketchup thinly over the loaf.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Remove from the oven.
• Cut the final piece of Cheddar cheese into slices and place on top of the meat loaf. Return the meat loaf to the oven and continue baking until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the meat loaf to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a food processor or blender, puree the onion.
• After the onion is done, mix in two eggs, 1/3°C Milk and set aside the liquid mixture.
• In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, 1 cup of the bread crumbs, spices and the liquid ingredients.
• If the mixture seems too wet, mix in the remaining bread crumbs.
• (Depends on the size and moisture content of the onion.) Cook on a roasting pan at 350 degrees.
• Do not cook in a bread pan, the liquids will stay in the pan with the meat. Not a pretty sight!
• Options:
• Childhood memory option: Put as many figure sized holes in the top or shape the meat loaf into your favorite childhood action figure. Then fill in the holes with ketchup.
• Adult option: Roll the meat loaf into a log and wrap with the sliced bacon.

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium high heat, heat the olive oil.
• Saute the onions until translucent, about 8 minutes.
• Add the mushrooms and garlic and cook over medium high heat for 3 or 5 minutes.

• Place a 9 x 5 x 2 1/2-inch loaf pan with the short side facing you.
• Take bacon slices and place them across the pan, slightly overlapping, to line the bottom and sides.
• Continue with the meat mixture, patting down to level.
• Fold the ends of the bacon strips up and over the ground meat mixture.
• Place the loaf pan in a larger baking or roasting pan and fill the larger pan with boiling water halfway up the sides of the loaf pan. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour.
• Remove the foil and continue to bake 30 minutes or until an instant read thermometer registers 165°F.
• Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Carefully pour the juices out of the pan.
• Cut into 8 slices.
• To freeze: Meatloaf can be mixed, formed into a loaf and frozen before cooking. To bake a frozen loaf, use the standard method but bake 1-1/2 to 2 times longer. Always check for doneness with a meat thermometer. Or thaw completely in the refrigerator and cook as directions require.
• To freeze: Whole baked meat loaves can also be frozen. Bake as usual, let cool to room temperature, wrap in foil, place in a sealed plastic bag, and store in the freezer up to 6 months.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x11-inch baking dish.
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat until edges just start to curl, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels. Reserve about 1 tablespoon bacon drippings in the skillet.
• Cook and stir onion and garlic in the bacon drippings until onion is softened, 6 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and cool.
• Mix cooled onion and garlic, ground beef, 1/2 cup barbeque sauce, bread crumbs, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, oregano, and chili powder together with your hands in a large bowl. Form beef mixture into a log-shaped meatloaf; place in the prepared baking dish.
• Wrap partially-cooked bacon slices around the meatloaf, tucking the ends of bacon underneath the loaf.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Brush bacon-wrapped meatloaf with 3 tablespoons barbeque sauce. Continue baking until no longer pink in the center, about 10 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
