Bacon Wrapped Bbq Meatloaf Stuffed With Cheese Food

BBQ BACON WRAPPED STUFFED MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Melt butter over medium heat in large saute pan. Add sliced onions, mushrooms and salt. Stir to combine.
• Once onions have softened, turn heat down to medium low and let onions and mushrooms caramelize, stirring occasionally until deep golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a cooling rack on top.
• In a large bowl combine ground beef, diced onion, garlic, breadcrumb, olive oil, eggs, Worcestershire, Dijon, BBQ sauce, salt and pepper. Mix gently with your hands until fully incorporated, being careful not to over mix!
• Take half of the meat mixture and form into a rectangle loaf shape on clean surface. Make a indent in the middle and fill with caramelized mushrooms, onions, and cheddar cheese. Take the remaining half of meat mixture and gently seal the edges while smoothing the loaf.
• Carefully transfer the meatloaf onto the prepared cooling rack-lined backing sheet. Brush loaf generously with BBQ sauce. Wrap bacon slices around the loaf, slightly overlapping and tucking the overhang under the loaf to prevent shrinking. Brush loaf again with BBQ sauce.
• Bake for 1 hr or until internal temperature of meat is 160 F. (If bacon isn't crispy, turn broiler setting on, and cook additional 2 minutes or until bacon is crispy.)
• Remove and let cool 10 minutes before serving.

BACON-CHEDDAR MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Cook bacon in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, until crispy and fat renders, about 10 minutes. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate, reserving renderings in the skillet. Cook the onions and garlic in the pan drippings until brown, about 15 minutes. Let cool.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl whisk the eggs, mustard, hot sauce, Worcestershire, cream, salt, and pepper. Add the meat, cheese, parsley, and cooked onion. Chop and add the bacon. Mix with a fork until evenly blended. Whisk the glaze ingredients together in a bowl.
• Dampen hands with water and on a foil-lined cookie sheet, pat mixture into a loaf shape. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf registers 155 degrees F, about 1 hour. Spread the glaze onto the meatloaf after about 50 minutes. Let loaf rest for at least 10 minutes before serving.

DAD'S CHEESY BACON WRAPPED MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• In a large bowl combine ground beef with eggs and 2 tablespoons ketchup.
• Once beef mixture is well mixed, add dry ingredients: breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic, salt, oregano, basil, and pepper. Followed by the diced onions.
• Set mixture aside.
• In 9x13 pan, line the bottom of the pan with the strips of bacon-- the width, not the length of the pan (you can use a loaf pan, but I warn you, the meatloaf is greasy, and the loaf pan can get very full).
• Take half of the meat mixture and pat it across the top of the bacon. This should be the bottom part of your loaf. Take THREE of the four pieces of cheddar cheese and place them across the center of the meat mixture (this will be your cheesy center!).
• Take the second half of the meat mixture and add it on top of your cheese. Mold the meat into a loaf shape. The cheese should be completely covered and in the center of the loaf.
• Finally, pull the bacon and wrap it around the loaf. Take your final tablespoon of ketchup and thinly spread it across the top of meatloaf.
• Put meatloaf in oven and cook for 60 minutes.
• Take final quarter of cheddar cheese and cut in to slices.
• Place these final cheese slices on top of the meatloaf, and put meatloaf back into oven until the cheese is melted (approximately 5 minutes.) Let meatloaf sit for a few minutes to cool before serving.

DAD'S CHEESY BACON WRAPPED MEAT LOAF

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.

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• In a large bowl combine beef, bread crumbs and milk. Pouring milk directly over bread crumbs. Add 2 tablespoons ketchup, Worcestershire and steak seasoning. Set aside.

• Gentle press meatloaf into bowl and divide in half. Place first half into 7x10" baking dish and form into a flat meatloaf Gently press the center in to create a rim around the outside of the meatloaf. Add shredded cheese i nto the center of the meatloaf.
• Form remaining half of meatloaf in the bowl into a size similar to the meatloaf in the pan. Set op top and press the sides together to seal in the cheese. Form into a loaf shape about 1½ - 2" tall.
• You may notice cracks in the loaf. Run your hands under warm water and then across the meatloaf to smooth the cracks out. Set meatloaf aside.
• In a small bowl combine 4 tablespoons ketchup and 1 tablespoon brown sugar. Mix well with a fork. Apply glaze evenly all over your meatloaf (except the bottom).
• Arrange bacon slices over the top of the meatloaf. Start by wrapping a piece of bacon across the front side and a second piece of bacon across the back side. Arrange remaining bacon over the top. Tuck the ends of the bacon under the meatloaf (this prevents curling).
• Place meatloaf in the oven and bake until bacon is crispy, about 1 hour.
