Beef and Bacon Meatloaf
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, grated on large holes
- 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
- 3/4 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 3 tbsp dark brown sugar
- 1/4 tsp cayenne
- 2 large eggs
- 2/3 cup fine bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup Finely grated parmesan
- 1 tbsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 2 lbs ground chuck
- 6 strips bacon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, then parchment paper.
- Heat oil over medium in a small skillet. Cook onion and garlic, stirring occasionally, until very soft, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
- Meanwhile, bring ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, and cayenne to a boil in a small saucepan, reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced and syrupy, about 5 minutes.
- Add eggs, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, salt, and pepper to onion and garlic; mix to combine. Add beef and mix well with your hands to combine. Transfer meatloaf mixture to prepared pan and form into a long log (about 12"x5"), smoothing surface. Spread reserved ketchup mixture over top and drape bacon in a crisscross pattern over loaf, tucking underneath. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 165° and bacon is crisp, 70–80 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing.
