Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 lb 80% lean ground beef
8 ounces ground veal
8 ounces ground pork (Note ( A "meatloaf variety" pack of beef pork and veal may be used.)
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup milk
1 cup oatmeal
1/2 cup ground parmigiano-reggiano cheese
1/2 cup canned peeled tomatoes, drained and roughly chopped
1/3 cup finely diced celery
1/2 cup finely diced onion
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon dried basil
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
6 slices of raw bacon
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup dripping, from the meatloaf
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 large button mushrooms, thinly sliced
coarse salt
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • In a large bowl thoroughly combine the beef, pork, and veal.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, and then stir in the milk and oats.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the meat mixture and combine thoroughly.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and combine again until fully incorporated.
  • Form into a loaf in a roasting pan.
  • Cover meatloaf with the slices of raw bacon and bake for 45 to 50 minutes.
  • Remove to a platter and keep warm while making the mushroom gravy. (Note: Be sure to reserve 1/2 cup drippings for the gravy.).
  • For the mushroom gravy: Pour the water into the meatloaf's roasting pan and stir and scrape with a wooden spoon or whisk to loosen the browned bits at the bottom.
  • Pour the reserved meatloaf drippings into a 2-quart saucepan and warm over medium heat.
  • Gradually stir in the flour until smooth. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is slightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Slowly stir in the liquid from the roasting pan and cook, stirring, until thickened.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
