VENISON MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Saute the onion in a little butter over medium-low heat. When onion just starts to look done, add the chopped garlic and saute just a few minutes longer (this brings out the flavor of the onion and the garlic instead of adding them raw).
• Mix together all the ingredients except tomato sauce, basil, and 1/4 cup ketchup.
• Put into loaf pan and cook at 375 for 50 minutes. Mix together tomato sauce and 1/4 cup ketchup and pour over top of meatloaf, then sprinkle basil over that.
• Cook an additional 10 minutes. Let sit for 10 minutes after pulling out of oven.
• Note: feel free to add some steak seasoning in place of or in addition to the seasoned pepper for stronger flavor.

VENISON MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Stretch out the bacon with the back of a knife, then trim off and finely chop any stray bits. Line a 900g loaf tin with the bacon, leaving an overhang, and set aside. Tip the rest of the ingredients into a bowl and scrunch well with your hands.
• Pack the mix into the tin, pat down well and wrap over the bacon. Put the tin on a tray and bake in the middle of the oven for 1 hr 15 mins or until firm and cooked through. Leave to rest for at least 15 mins, then serve sliced - or leave to cool completely and serve sliced cold for a buffet with salad, or stuffed into a roll. Either way, Cumberland sauce is a must (see tip, below).

MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Make the meatloaf: Heat oven to 350 degrees and grease a rimmed baking sheet with oil. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium skillet over medium. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in tomato paste until well combined; let cool.
• In a large bowl, combine bread and milk, and mash with a spoon until a paste forms. Add eggs, parsley, salt, pepper, thyme and cooled onion mixture and mix until well blended. Add the beef, pork and veal, and mix gently to combine, being careful not to overwork the meat. Divide mixture into 2 equal portions and shape each into a 4-by-8-inch meatloaf on the prepared baking sheet.
• Make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together ketchup and Worcestershire sauce until smooth. Use a spoon to spread mixture over the top and sides of each meatloaf. Bake until nicely browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of meatloaf registers 160 degrees, 45 to 55 minutes. Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
