directions

  • Saute butter, onion, celery, and bell pepper until carmelized.
  • Add garlic, thyme, rosemary, and parsley. Cook 2 minutes. Cool in a mixing bowl.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • To mixing bowl with vegetables, add eggs, mustard, 1/4 cup ketchup, Worcestershire, and cream. Mix.
  • Add breadcrumbs, meat, salt, and mix with hand just until combined. Do not overmix.
  • Form into 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pan. Set aside.
  • Combine 1/2 cup ketchup and 1/4 cup of brown sugar (or to taste).
  • Poke holes into the meatloaf and drizzle the topping over it, allowing it to seep into the meat.
  • Cut bacon slices in half, lengthwise, and place in strips over the top of the meatloaf.
  • Bake for 45 minutes and until the sauce is slightly caramelized on the top.
  • Remove from the oven and tent with foil. Let it stand about 10 minutes before serving.

  3. Best Meatloaf I've ever had, and I don't care too much for meatloaf (ate it all the time as a kid). The version I had tonight was Emeril's original recipe, which is for the most part almost exactly like this one.
     
  4. My husband, 16 year old and myself loved this recipe for a more tantalizing meatloaf. I substituted low fat milk instead of heavy cream. I also substituted GF Gluten free bread crumbs. I served along with mashed potatoes and corn on the cob. I definitely will be making it again soon.
