Bourbon Glazed Meatloaf Recipes

BOURBON GLAZED MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Set oven to 350F
• To make the sauce, put all the ingredients in a sauce pan and stir to combine. Bring to a boil lower the heat and simmer/boil gently, uncovered, for about 10 minutes until thickened. If you used a chunky jam you may want to use an immersion blender to puree the glaze.
• Put the meats in a large mixing bowl, breaking them apart into small pieces as you add them.
• Add the egg, breadcrumbs, onion and salt and pepper to the bowl. Mix everything well with your fingertips. You want to thoroughly incorporate all the elements without over-doing it.
• Form the meat into a loaf, not too tall and not too wide. You want it to cook evenly, so try to get it even from end to end.
• You can set it directly in a pan or on a baking sheet, or set it on a rack if you have one. Whatever you do, be sure to line the pan with foil since the glaze will drip and make a mess.
• Spread a layer of glaze all over the meatloaf and bake it for about 60 minutes, or until a thermometer inserted in the center reads 155F. (It will continue to cook as it rests.) Note: I baste another layer of sauce on the meat halfway through the cooking.
• Remove the meat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Slather on a final coat of glaze just before serving, (heat it up on the stove so it is hot) and serve extra sauce on the side.

CAJUN "MEATLOAF" W/ SWEET BOURBON GLAZE (VEGAN)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Oil a 9 x 13 baking pan.
• Mix grated tempeh, onion, garlic, flour, and spices in a large bowl.
• Add in sauces and oil, and enough water (you may not need any at all) so you are able to mash everything up with your fingers. Knead/mush/mash for a few mins to mix everything well.
• Divide dough into 10 pieces and shape into small loaves. Place into oiled pan, and spray lightly with oil. Bake for 15 minutes.
• While loaves are baking, bring glaze ingredients to bubbling in a small saucepan. Let thicken a bit. Spoon over baking loaves. Bake loaves for 15 mins more, then scoop excess glaze back over the loaves. Bake for an additional 20-25 mins, or until glaze is thickened and darkened.

MEATLOAF WITH MAPLE BOURBON BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven 425 degrees F.
• Line a baking pan with tinfoil (to ease clean up). A loaf pan or a roasting pan all work well.
• Place meats in a large bowl.
• grate or food process carrot and add it to the bowl with the meat.
• Finely chop or food process the onion and add it to the bowl with the meat.
• Add almond meal (finely ground almond flour) to the meat mixture. If this ingredient is not available a finely chopped slice of bread can also suffice. However, the recipe will no longer be gluten free.
• Add curry powder, chili powder, italian seasoning, garlic powder and hot sauce to the meat mixture.
• Put a dollop of maple syrup and a dollop of ketchup in the meat mixture (optional).
• Using your hands, mix the meat mixture together with the spices and vegetables, working it till all the ingredients in the bowl are mixed together. The mixture should be fluffy and wet, but not runny. If the mixture is too loose, add a little more almond meal, but careful not to add too much as it should be moist!
• Form the meat mixture into a loaf shape in the pan you are using. The loaf should be about a pinky's width away from the sides of the pan, mounded up. If there isn't enough room, use a slightly larger pan. If you fill the pan right up grease will not be able to escape the sides and will overflow from the loaf! It is better to use a too large pan than a too small pan.
• Put the bowl you mixed the meat in to the side. You can use this later to drain extra grease into.
• Place loaf into the preheated oven. Set a timer for 40 minutes. Bake uncovered.
• While the loaf is cooking, whisk together the ketchup, maple syrup, mustard and bourbon to make your BBQ sauce. If you like spicy foods feel free to add some chili flakes or some of your favourite hot sauce.
• After the meatloaf has baked for 40 minutes, remove it from the oven and carefully drain the liquid from the pan. For ease of not making extra dishes, I suggest using the bowl you mixed the meat into. This liquid will be discarded! Only drain as much as you can safely. Use heat-safe oven mitts while doing this!
• Pour the BBQ sauce mixture over top of the meatloaf and put it back in the oven for 30 minutes.
• After 30 minutes insert a meat thermometer into the middle of the thickest part of the loaf. It should read at least 160 degrees F. If it does not, cook it for another 15 minutes and check again.
