Bacon-Wrapped Meat Loaf Ingredients<\/h2>\n
Sauce:<\/strong><\/p>\n Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F. In a small skillet, heat the canola oil over medium-high heat, then add the onion and garlic. Saute, stirring occasionally, until tender, about four to five minutes.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard and hot pepper sauce.<\/p>\n Stir in the onion mixture, saltine crackers, parsley, salt, pepper and thyme. Then crumble the beef, veal and pork into the bowl.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Handle the mixture as little as possible for a tender meat loaf. Excessive handling can result in a meat loaf that is dense, dry and\/or tough.<\/p>\n Mix well. Then, with wet hands, shape it into a single loaf and place onto a greased foil-lined rimmed sheet pan or 13-in.x 9-in. baking dish.<\/p>\n Keep in mind that the shape of your meat loaf will impact the overall cooking time. A longer meat loaf with less height will typically cook faster than a shorter meat loaf with more height.<\/p>\n Next, in a small saucepan, combine the sauce ingredients over medium heat. Cook and stir until the sugar is dissolved, and the sauce has thickened slightly.<\/p>\n Spoon 1\/2 cup of the sauce over the loaf and spread it evenly over the surface. Then, begin wrapping the bacon slices around the meat loaf, overlapping slightly and tucking in the ends under the meat loaf to ensure complete coverage.<\/p>\n If your bacon slices are too long, feel free to trim them to a shorter length. You want just enough so you can tuck the ends under the meat loaf.<\/p>\n Bake, uncovered, for 50 to 55 minutes or until fully cooked in the center. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Warm the remaining 1\/2 cup sauce and serve with meat loaf.<\/p>\n To make sure your meat loaf is done in the center, use an instant-read thermometer. When it registers 160\u00b0, your meat loaf is ready to serve.<\/p>\n Make this recipe your own. Swap the sauce for one from another recipe, add additional ingredients for a flavor change, or follow your favorite celebrity chef’s advice.<\/p>\n Yes! Meat loaf freezes like a dream. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and a layer of heavy-duty foil. Then freeze for up to three months. To reheat, defrost overnight in the refrigerator and then bake, uncovered, in a 350\u00b0 oven until heated through.<\/p>\n The fat content of your ground meat matters. While choosing lean beef is a great way to cut fat and calories, it can also lead to a dry meat loaf. Choosing ground beef with higher fat content (such as an 80\/20 ground chuck) will yield the most juicy meat loaf. The veal and pork help with moisture since they lend additional fat to the recipe.<\/p>\n The eggs, milk and crackers are key to binding a meat loaf together. When combined, they make a “glue” that helps the meat loaf hold its shape. For best results, measure carefully and mix well to evenly distribute them throughout the meat loaf.<\/p>\n If your meat loaf is struggling to hold together, gradually add additional milk, cracker crumbs and\/or an extra egg until the desired consistency is reached.<\/p>\n Make sure to use thin or classic-cut bacon for this recipe. While we love thick-sliced bacon with breakfast, it isn’t the ideal type of bacon<\/a> for this recipe since it will not crisp enough in the oven.<\/p>\n Homestyle side dishes<\/a> like baked macaroni and cheese<\/a>, creamed spinach<\/a>\u00a0or any one of these cornbread recipes<\/a> are all delicious pairings with bacon-wrapped meat loaf.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This
