Yield 1 big meatloaf, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/2 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup minced yellow onion
1/4 cup minced carrot
3 garlic cloves, minced I minced all 3 veggies in my small chopper
1 lb ground chuck
1 lb ground pork
1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
1 tablespoon parsley, I didn
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 egg
1/2 cup breadcrumbs, ...I used fresh bread that was frozen, works great in the chopper if its still frozen, do it before
1/4 cup brewed coffee
1/4 cup Bourbon
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/8 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup catsup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

Heat oil over low heat, add onion, carrots & garlic, cover & cook for 10 min., cool.
In a large bowl mix the beef & pork, then mix in the onion, carrot & garlic. I mix the seasonings with a beaten egg then add that & the bread crumbs to the meat, try not to overmix.
Form into a long loaf shape & place in a greased pan, I used a 9/13 in pan. Bake at 325 for 50 minute.
Meanwhile make the glaze, combine the coffee, bourbon, brown sugar & soy sauce, cook over med. high heat, stir frequently until the liquid is reduced by half. Add catsup & worcestershire sauce, stir & simmer for 10 minute.
When meatloaf is done drain off all the liquid, liberally brush on the glaze, it says to return to the oven for 10 minute to brown, I ended up putting it under the broiler for this. Remove from oven & let rest for 10 minute before slicing. Make sure that you save enough of the glaze to put on the slices.
