Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 pounds ground beef, pork and veal (a meatloaf mix)
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
Three 1-inch slices good-quality stale white bread
Milk, for soaking bread
2 eggs
A couple handfuls grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
1/4 cup grated onion
3 to 4 cloves garlic, grated or finely chopped
Olive oil cooking spray
1 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons store-bought balsamic drizzle (or reduce 1/4 cup vinegar and 1 tablespoon brown sugar in a small pot to about 2 tablespoons of drizzle)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Chicken stock, for warming
Italian-American crusty white bread, for serving
Toppings: lettuce, tomato, red onion, thinly sliced fresh mozzarella and torn fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the meat in a mixing bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Trim the crusts off the bread and place in a small bowl, cover with milk and soak to soften. Squeeze the milk from the bread and crumble as you add it to the meat. Then add the eggs, cheese, parsley, grated onion and garlic, and mix to combine. Form into a loaf about 4 inches high and put on the baking sheet. Spray with olive oil.
  • Mix the ketchup with the balsamic drizzle and Worcestershire. Season with pepper. Spread about 1/3 cup of the ketchup mixture over the top of the meatloaf. Bake until cooked through, about 1 hour.
  • To reheat, slice the meatloaf 1 1/2 inches thick and put in a pot of warmed chicken stock. Serve the meatloaf hot or cold on thick-sliced Italian white bread with the remaining ketchup mixture and the lettuce, tomato, onions, mozzarella and basil.

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 tablespoon olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium yellow onion, minced
1 red bell pepper, minced
Pinch crushed red pepper, optional
2 pounds ground beef (I use 80/20)
1 cup grated Parmesan
3/4 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
16 fresh basil leaves, chopped
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup marinara sauce
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
6 soft sub rolls, split
Garlic salt, as needed
1 cup marinara sauce
1 pound sliced mozzarella

Steps:

  • For the meatloaf: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, onion, bell pepper and crushed red pepper if using and saute until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • In a large bowl, combine the beef, Parmesan, breadcrumbs, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, kosher salt, pepper, basil, eggs, 1/2 cup of the marinara and the cooled vegetables. Use your hands to mix everything together. Transfer the mixture to the center of the prepared baking sheet and form into a loaf. Coat the meat loaf with the remaining 1/2 cup marinara.
  • Bake until the meat loaf is firm, 45 minutes to 1 hour (depending on the shape of your loaf). Let set for about 5 minutes before slicing.
  • For the sandwiches: Butter the rolls and then sprinkle with garlic salt. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake until light golden and toasted, about 5 minutes.
  • Add a slice of meatloaf to each toasted roll and top with some of the marinara and 3 slices mozzarella. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted, 8 to 10 minutes.

NORTHERN ITALY'S MEAT LOAF FOR SANDWICHES



NORTHERN ITALY'S MEAT LOAF for SANDWICHES image

A Friulani neighbor shared this recipe with me in the 1960's. It is great sliced and served on a buffet table, wonderful in sandwiches because of the texture. I always make 2 loaves, serving one for supper. In the drippings I cook potatoes, thicken the gravy, and add frozen peas. Delicious.

ITALIAN MEAT LOAF FOR SANDWICHES

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients and mix gently Form 2 loaves of equal size, and sprinkle with flour or use bread crumbs
  • In a large and high sided hot skillet, add oil and brown the loaves on all sides..... (recipe was given as "Heat oil in electric fry pan" which was the invention of the 1950's) VERY IMPORTANT STEP: When this is done, VERY SLOWLY .... add BOILING WATER up to 1 INCH. Be very careful, as it will splatter..
  • You may have to keep adding a little water and cook from 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Turn the loaves over carefully during the cooking time. When the juice from the loaves is clear, they are done.
  • Cool and wrap in foil wrap..... It is delicious and the texture is like processed sliced meat, not crumbly like a meatloaf.
  • As mentioned, I usually remove the meatloaves and add potatoes to the broth, thicken the sauce, and add frozen peas to serve for supper.
