Pauls Italian Style Meatloaf Recipes

ITALIAN MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the meatloaf: Pour the milk over the bread and allow it to soak in for several minutes. Place the ground beef, milk-soaked bread, Parmesan, parsley, Italian seasoning, salt, seasoned salt and some pepper in a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs. With clean hands, mix the ingredients until well combined.
• Form the mixture into a loaf shape on a foil-lined broiler pan, which will allow the fat from the meat to drain. Lay the pancetta slices over the top, tucking them underneath the meatloaf to give the meatloaf some support.
• For the tomato sauce: Put the diced tomatoes into a bowl. Add the brown sugar, dry mustard and cayenne pepper and splash in the Worcestershire sauce. Stir the mixture until well combined. Pour one-third of the sauce over the top of the meatloaf.
• Bake for 45 minutes, and then pour another third of the remaining tomato sauce over the meatloaf. Bake until no longer pink in the middle, for an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to sit 10 minutes before serving.
• Serve with the remaining tomato sauce on the side as a dipping sauce.

CHEF PAUL'S MEAT LOAF RECIPE

Steps:

• how to prepare Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions, celery, bell pepper, green onion, the Magic Seasoning Blend, garlic, Magic Pepper Sauce, Worcestershire sauce and bay leaves. Cook, stirring occasionally and scraping the bottom of the pan until the mixture starts sticking excessively, about 6 minutes. Stir in the milk and catsup. Continue cooking for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and allow to cool at room temperature. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the beef and pork in a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs, cooked vegetable mixture (remove bay leaves) and bread crumbs. Mix by hand, being careful not to overmix. Overmixing will release the protein in the meat and make it mushy. Blend no longer than necessary to distribute ingredients. Place mixture in an ungreased 13" x 9" baking pan. Shape into a loaf that is about 12 x 6 x 1-1/2 inches - - it will not touch the sides of the pan - - and bake uncovered for 25 minutes. Raise heat to 400°F and continue cooking until done, approximately 35 minutes.

ITALIAN STYLE MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Prepare the ingredients; Remove the sausage from the casings and crumble. Grate the mozzarella. Chop the onion and mince the garlic and cook in butter until they're soft and translucent. Make the bread crumbs. Chop the sun-dried tomatoes, and measure out the other ingredients.
• In a large bowl, gently mix the ground beef, sausage, grated cheese, cooked onions and garlic, bread crumbs, chopped tomatoes, basil, oregano and salt and pepper to taste. Blend about 2/3 of the V-8 juice, the egg and red wine separately, and fold this liquid mix into the dry ingredients.
• Divide the meat mixture into two parts. Form them into long oval loaves and place them on a baking sheet lined with lightly greased aluminum foil. ( You will be sorry if you don't use the foil at clean up time) Brush the loaves with the remaining V-8 juice and dust with a little more dried oregano, salt and pepper.
• Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until the temperature at the center reaches 150 to 160°F Allow it to rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
