Not my grandmothers.. I don’t remember them ever making a meatloaf. My husband and I came up with this one and it’s a keeper.
Trillian’s Whiskey Glazed Bacon Meatloaf
Meatloaf Ingredients:
2 pounds of ground venison, or extra lean ground beef
1 cup of grated parmesan cheese
1 1/2 cups of fresh bread crumbs
5 large eggs
1 teaspoon of garlic salt
½ lb of bacon, cooked and minced
3 cloves of garlic, minced
¼ cup sweet onion, finely diced
2 tablespoons of fresh parsley, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Whiskey glaze:
½ cup of dark brown sugar
¼ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons of butter
12 sliced of uncooked bacon
Heat oven to 400F.
Mix all of meatloaf ingredients together and form into a loaf in a large meatloaf pan.
Heat whiskey glaze ingredients in a small sauce pan and bring to a simmer.
Simmer for two minutes and pour over the meatloaf.
On a flat surface weave bacon slices and then place over meatloaf folding end pieces of bacon underneath.
Cover meatloaf with aluminum foil and bake for about 1 hour. Take off aluminum foil and continue baking for 15-20 minutes more until bacon looks crisp and thermometer measures about 165F.
Serve with garlic mashed potatoes and buttered corn.
Do you put whiskey in that glaze or just drink it? How much?
