This is from Guy Fieri. Mmm, what's not to love about cornbread AND meatloaf! Ingredients:
2 large corn muffins, crumbled by hand (2 to 3 cups) |
1/2 lb bacon, chopped |
1 red bell pepper, diced |
1 tablespoon seeded and minced jalapeno |
2 tablespoons minced garlic |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley |
salt and pepper |
1 egg, beaten |
3 tablespoons olive oil, plus |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
1 cup diced red onion |
1 tablespoon seeded and minced jalapeno |
2 tablespoons minced garlic |
2 lbs ground beef |
1 lb ground pork |
2 teaspoons sea salt |
2 teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves |
1 tablespoon chopped thyme leaves |
1 teaspoon dry mustard |
1/4 cup ketchup |
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce |
2 eggs |
6 ounces sliced cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. For the stuffing: Preheat oven to 275 to 300 degrees F.
2. Spread the cornbread crumbs on a sheet pan and let toast for about 20 minutes, or until lightly toasted and dry. Turn oven up to 350 degrees F.
3. In a skillet brown the bacon until crispy. Drain. To the same skillet add the red pepper, jalapeño, and garlic and cook until soft.
4. In a bowl, combine the cornbread crumbs, bacon, and vegetable mixture. Add parsley and salt and pepper, to taste. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
5. For the meatloaf: In medium skillet over medium heat add oil, red onions, jalapeño and garlic. Cook until caramelized, remove from heat and let cool.
6. In a bowl combine the meat, salt, pepper, parsley, thyme, mustard, ketchup Worcestershire, and eggs and thoroughly mix.
7. Divide the meat mixture in half.
8. Shape 1 half into a rectangle, creating a canoe, and then loosely fill with stuffing. Do not pack it inches.
9. Use the other half of the meat to fully enclose the stuffing.
10. Transfer to the oven and bake for 1 1/2 hours, or until internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F.
11. Layer the cheese slices on top and bake for another 5 minutes to melt the cheese.
12. Remove from oven and let rest for about 10 minutes.
13. Cut into thick slices and serve.
