Bacon Wrapped Mini Bbq Meatloaves Recipes

BBQ BACON-WRAPPED MEATLOAF

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.

BACON WRAPPED MEATLOAVES

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.)

BACON WRAPPED MINI MEATLOAVES

Steps:

• I start by sauteing my onion and garlic in a pan with some olive oil until soft.
• I add the cooked onion and garlic to my meat mixture.
• Mix everything in a bowl together except the bacon.
• Don't over mix.
• Now form your lovely packages into 5" long loaves. Cut bacon slices to drape over each loaf. About 4 half slices for each little mini meatloaf. Pack them tightly on the meat to keep them moist.
• I bake them on a rack over a cookie sheet to catch the drippings. Less mess this way.
• Bake at 350 degrees for about 35-45 minutes. Temperature should reach 160.
• Let rest about 10 minutes on cutting board before slicing, otherwise the slices will fall apart. Let the juices redistribute and solidify.
