Bacon Egg And Cheese Meatloaf With Gochujang Glaze Recipes

BACON-CHEESEBURGER MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Tear bread into pieces; pulse in a food processor to make fine crumbs (or use plain breadcrumbs) set aside.P
• Cook the Onions: Pulse onion in food processor until finely chopped (or do so by hand). Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add onion and 1 teaspoon kosher salt to skillet; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, about 8 minutes. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, broth, and 1/4 cup ketchup. Remove from heat; let cool completely.
• Prep the Meat and Glaze: In a small bowl, stir together 1/2 cup ketchup and brown sugar for glaze; set aside. In a large bowl, combine onions with ground chuck, 1 egg, 1/2 cup reserved breadcrumbs, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper. Mix with your hands until well combined. Gently fold in cheddar.
• Bake and Let Cool: On a rimmed baking sheet, form meat mixture into a loaf that's 10 inches long, 4 inches wide, and 2 inches high, packing firmly to prevent cracking. Coat top and sides with 1/2 of glaze, then top with bacon, overlapping slices slightly. Brush remaining glaze over bacon. Bake until top is caramelized and a thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 165 degrees, 55 to 65 minutes. (If top is browning too quickly, tent with foil.) Let cool at least 25 minutes.

• Return loaf to the preheated oven and continue to bake until no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Let sit for at least 10 minutes before cutting and serving.

• Set mixture aside.
• In 9x13 pan, line the bottom of the pan with the strips of bacon-- the width, not the length of the pan (you can use a loaf pan, but I warn you, the meatloaf is greasy, and the loaf pan can get very full).
• Take half of the meat mixture and pat it across the top of the bacon. This should be the bottom part of your loaf. Take THREE of the four pieces of cheddar cheese and place them across the center of the meat mixture (this will be your cheesy center!).
• Take the second half of the meat mixture and add it on top of your cheese. Mold the meat into a loaf shape. The cheese should be completely covered and in the center of the loaf.
• Finally, pull the bacon and wrap it around the loaf. Take your final tablespoon of ketchup and thinly spread it across the top of meatloaf.

• Remove from the heat.
• Mix the remaining ingredients and the onion, bacon mix together in a large bowl-I find this best done by hand.
• Place in a 9inch long by 3 inch wide and deep loaf dish, patting down very firmly and shaping the top nicely.
• Bake in a moderate oven for 1 1/2 hours, draining any accumulated fat about half way through.
• Mix the topping ingredients together, spread over the meatloaf and return to the oven for the final 30 minutes of cooking.
• Allow the meatloaf to stand about 10 minutes before slicing.

BACON, EGG AND CHEESE MEATLOAF WITH GOCHUJANG GLAZE

Steps:

• For the meatloaf: Fill a medium sized saucepan 3/4 of the way with hot water and bring to a boil over high heat. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line an 8-by-4-inch loaf pan with 2 pieces of foil leaving an overhang on all sides, creating handles. Spray the foil-lined pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Fill a medium bowl with cold water and a cup of ice cubes and set aside. Turn the boiling water down to a simmer and place the eggs into the water, one at a time. Boil for exactly 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove each egg to the ice bath. When cool enough to handle, gently tap the egg against a countertop or cutting board to crack the shell. Carefully peel away the shell and discard. Set the peeled eggs aside
• Whisk together the ketchup and gochujang in a small bowl. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, pork, breadcrumbs, egg and 1/4 cup of the gochujang-ketchup mixture. Fold in the scallions, bell pepper and shredded Cheddar. Add a healthy crack of black pepper and a 4-finger pinch of salt (about 2 teaspoons).
• Put 1/3 of the meatloaf mixture into the bottom of the prepared loaf pan. Line up the soft-boiled eggs upright in the pan, pressing them lightly into the meat and spacing 1/8 inch apart. Press the remaining meatloaf mixture between and around the eggs encasing them completely.
• Brush 1/4 cup of gochujang-ketchup glaze over the meatloaf. Reserve the remaining glaze for serving.
• Bake the meatloaf for 60 to 75 minutes. Meanwhile make the jam.
• For the bacon-gochujang jam: Heat a large, heavy-bottomed pot or high-sided skillet, over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring often, until golden-brown and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain out some bacon fat, reserving about 1 tablespoon in the skillet.
• Add the sliced onions, season with 1 teaspoon salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Stir to combine and coat the onions in bacon fat. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring every few minutes, until slightly caramelized and starting to brown, about 10 minutes. Turn the heat to low and add the gochujang. Stir to coat the onion mixture and cook for 1 minute. Add the orange juice, maple syrup and vinegar. Simmer on low, stirring occasionally, until the onions are jammy and the liquid has reduced, about 30 minutes. Season to taste with salt.
