MEATLOAF RECIPE WITH BROWN SUGAR GLAZE RECIPES

Steps:

• For the glaze: Mix all ingredients in a small bowl; set aside.
• For the meatloaf: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat oil in a medium skillet. Add onion and garlic, saute until softened, about 5 minutes; set aside to cool.
• Mix eggs with thyme, salt, pepper, mustard, Worchestershire, pepper sauce, and milk or yogurt. Add egg mixture to meat in a large bowl, along with crackers, oatmeal or bread crumbs, parsley and cook onions and garlic; mix with a fork until evenly blended and meat mixture does not stick to bowl. (If mixture does stick, add additional milk, a couple tablespoons at a time, and continue stirring until mixture stops sticking.)
• Turn meat mixture onto a work surface. With wet hands, pat mixture into a loaf approximately 9 by 5 inches.
• Cover a wire rack with foil; prick foil in several places with a fork. Place a rack on a shallow roasting pan lined with foil for easy cleanup.
• Set formed loaf on rack. Brush loaf with all of glaze, then arrange bacon slices, crosswise, over loaf, overlapping them slightly and tucking them under to prevent curling.
• Bake loaf until bacon is crisp and loaf registers 160 degrees, about 1 hour. Cool for at least 20 minutes. Slice and serve

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.  Lightly spray a loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray.
• Combine ketchup, brown sugar, and salt in a small mixing bowl and allow to sit for a couple of minutes to allow sugar to dissolve.
• Spoon one-third cup of sauce into bottom of a loaf pan. Set aside.
• Place ground beef, bread crumbs, onion, bell pepper, eggs, milk, and one-third cup of glaze into food processor and process until mixture is thoroughly blended.
• Place meat mixture into loaf pan and smooth down the top.
• Spread remaining glaze on top of loaf and bake for 1 hour or until internal temperature is 155 to 160 degrees.
• Remove from oven and allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
