Best Bacon Wrapped Salisbury Meatloaf Recipes

BACON-WRAPPED MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) .
• Combine ground beef, ground sausage, crushed crackers, ketchup, onion, eggs, onion powder, and garlic powder in a large bowl until mixed thoroughly, using your hands for best results. Form mixture into a loaf shape.
• Weave strips of bacon into a basket weave pattern. Place meatloaf in the center and carefully lift and transfer to a loaf pan, so bacon is on the bottom and sides of the pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 1 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Allow to sit for 5 minutes before carefully flipping onto a platter.

JO'S BACON-WRAPPED MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Combine panko, milk, pecorino, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, salt, eggs, pasilla chiles and Italian parsley in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Add the ground beef and hand-mix until well blended. Set aside.
• To make the glaze, combine ketchup, brown sugar, dry mustard and hot sauce in a small mixing bowl. Stir well using a rubber spatula. Set aside.
• Lay bacon down slightly overlapping side-by-side in a half-sheet pan. Spray a 9-by-4-inch loaf pan that's 6 inches high with nonstick spray. Place the beef mixture in the pan and pat down to form a meatloaf. Turn pan over and tap out the meatloaf into your hand. Place the meatloaf over the center of the bacon slices. Working with one slice at a time, fold ends of each bacon slice over the top of the meatloaf. Turn loaf over and place on a rack set in a baking sheet to allow the fat to drain while baking.
• Using the rubber spatula, spread half the glaze over the meatloaf. Bake for 1 hour, then apply remaining glaze. Continue to bake until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, about another 20 minutes.

BACON WRAPPED SALISBURY MEATLOAF

Steps:

• 1. Measure 4 Tbsp of the onion soup and 2 Tbsp of the tomato sauce in a large bowl. Add the bread crumbs, eggs, milk, Worcestershire, onion flakes, and the remaining seasonings. Stir to mix well. Let sit 10 minutes to allow the bread crumbs to soak up the liquids.
• 2. Gently mix in the 2 pounds ground beef chuck. Do this by working with your hands. Do not over mix or the meatloaf will be tough.
• 3. On a baking sheet (jelly roll pan), that is lined with non-stick foil, form the meat mix in to a loaf about 3x3x10. Wrap the loaf, lengthwise with the bacon slices.
• 4. Bake the meatloaf in a 350 degree oven for 1 hour and 10 minutes. The last 10 minutes turn the oven up to 425 degrees to get the bacon a little crispier.
• 5. Let the meatloaf rest, uncovered on the counter for 30 minutes before slicing. While it is resting, make the gravy.
• 6. To make the gravy, place the remaining can of French Onion Soup, the other 2 Tbsp of tomato sauce, the water, and the corn starch in a small saucepan. Heat until it comes to a boil, stirring constantly.
• 7. Serve the meatloaf with a little of the sauce on top.
