ULTIMATE MEATLOAF WITH TANGY SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
• In a bowl add all of the ingredients for the Tangy Sauce and whisk; set aside.
• In a medium bowl add the bread, panko and milk. Press the bread into the milk and set aside. Allow to soak for 5 minutes.
• In a large bowl add the rest of the meatloaf ingredients and the bread/panko/milk mixture. Gently mix until combined. Do not overimx as the meatloaf will be tough. Transfer the mixture to the baking sheet and using your hands, form a loaf that is about 12 inches long, 6 inches wide, and about 2 1/2-3 inches tall. The loaf should be smooth and have rounded edges. This will help the loaf stay together when serving.
• Bake for 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and spread Tangy Sauce all over the top and sides of the meatloaf. You'll use about 1 -1 1/2 cups of sauce. Save the leftover sauce for meatloaf sandwiches. Put the meatloaf back into the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes or until a thermometer inserted reads 165F.
• Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes before cutting.

MEATLOAF WITH TOMATO GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Toast the bread crumbs in a dry skillet over medium heat until browned and fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and set aside. Add the olive oil, onions, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper to the skillet and cook until onions are tender, about 8 minutes. Let cool slightly. Add the onions to the bread crumbs along with the meat, cheese, and Worcestershire sauce. Toss and mix gently. Add the eggs and stir to coat the meat completely.
• Transfer to a foil-lined sheet pan and gently press into desired shape. Bake until an instant read thermometer registers 160 degrees F in the center of the loaf, about 45 minutes.
• Tent the meatloaf with foil and let rest for 15 minutes while you make the gravy (or you can make the gravy while the meatloaf is baking).
• Gravy: Cook the onions, garlic, and oregano in the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until browned, about 6 minutes. Add the tomato paste and bay leaf. Stir until paste turns brick red and garlic is fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken broth and crushed tomatoes. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer and cook sauce until it thickens, about 5 minutes. Whisk in Parmesan cheese, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Discard the bay leaf and transfer the sauce to a gravy boat. Slice the meatloaf and serve with the gravy.
