Jakes Easy Cheesy Bacon Meatloaf Recipes

DAD'S CHEESY BACON WRAPPED MEAT LOAF

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine ground beef, eggs and 2 tablespoons of ketchup in a large bowl. Mix well, then add bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, oregano, basil, pepper, and onion. Set mixture aside. Line the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan with bacon, widthwise. Place half of the meat mixture across the top of the bacon. Lay 3 of the 4 pieces of Cheddar cheese across the center of the meat, lengthwise. Cover the cheese with the second half of the meat mixture and mold the meat into a loaf shape. Pull the ends of the bacon up and around the loaf. Spread 1 tablespoon of ketchup thinly over the loaf.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Remove from the oven.
• Cut the final piece of Cheddar cheese into slices and place on top of the meat loaf. Return the meat loaf to the oven and continue baking until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the meat loaf to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

BACON-CHEDDAR MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Cook bacon in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, until crispy and fat renders, about 10 minutes. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate, reserving renderings in the skillet. Cook the onions and garlic in the pan drippings until brown, about 15 minutes. Let cool.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl whisk the eggs, mustard, hot sauce, Worcestershire, cream, salt, and pepper. Add the meat, cheese, parsley, and cooked onion. Chop and add the bacon. Mix with a fork until evenly blended. Whisk the glaze ingredients together in a bowl.
• Dampen hands with water and on a foil-lined cookie sheet, pat mixture into a loaf shape. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf registers 155 degrees F, about 1 hour. Spread the glaze onto the meatloaf after about 50 minutes. Let loaf rest for at least 10 minutes before serving.

CHEESY BACON MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-by-4 loaf pan with parchment paper.
• Combine the meatloaf mix, breadcrumbs, Cheddar, bacon, chives, parsley, eggs, onion, garlic, 1/4 cup of the ketchup, 1 tablespoon of the Worcestershire, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Use your hands to mix together until combined well. Transfer the mixture to prepared loaf pan. Bake the meatloaf for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, stir the brown sugar together with the remaining 1/4 cup ketchup and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire in a small bowl.
• Remove the meatloaf from the oven and brush the top and sides all over with the ketchup glaze. Bake until the glaze starts to caramelize and a thermometer inserted in the center of the meatloaf registers 160 degrees F, about 45 minutes more. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

MEATLOAF WITH CHEESE AND BACON AND A BIT OF A BITE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a fry pan, add the bacon, onion and garlic and cook over a moderate heat until the onion is softened.
• 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.

DAD'S CHEESY BACON WRAPPED MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• In a large bowl combine ground beef with eggs and 2 tablespoons ketchup.
• Once beef mixture is well mixed, add dry ingredients: breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic, salt, oregano, basil, and pepper. Followed by the diced onions.
• 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.
• Put meatloaf in oven and cook for 60 minutes.
• Take final quarter of cheddar cheese and cut in to slices.
• Place these final cheese slices on top of the meatloaf, and put meatloaf back into oven until the cheese is melted (approximately 5 minutes.) Let meatloaf sit for a few minutes to cool before serving.
