Bacon Weave Meatloaf Recipe Ingredients

This meatloaf has a little bite of 3 different meats and just a few extra ingredients that make it POP! Not to mention a beautiful bacon weave to top it off.

Bacon Weave Meatloaf Recipe Ingredients
Usually ground beef is the main ingredient to my meatloaf recipe. I will admit the the traditional meatloaf recipe is basically the same ingredients as my meatballs. Todays recipe has ground veal, pork mixed with the beef giving it that extra fancy flavor.
When I first saw this recipe it was promoted as an alternative to the holiday meat and that it was cost efficient. NOT TRUE – I could find prime rib locally for $7.99 a pound which was amazing! I wouldn’t replace Christmas prime rib dinner with this bacon topped meatloaf but I am serving it as a nice Sunday meal. The ground veal in this recipe was the most expensive ingredient at $10.99 a pound.

You know me, I went out to the dome to harvest some fresh parsley and thyme to go in this dish. Don’t forget when you use fresh you don’t need as much as you would using dry herb ingredients. If you don’t have fresh, no worries because this recipe taste amazing with dry or fresh.
This is the first time I use a rake to raise the meat up off of the pan. This allows the grease to drop down off of the meat and into the lower roasting pan.

Thank you for stopping by and commenting on my recipe share. I hope to do a spin off of this recipe using ground venison in place of the lamb. A friend of mine was kind enough to give me some from their Autumn hunting. I’ll be sure to post how that turns out. IF you aren’t into an adventure with different meats the hamburger is just perfect for this recipe – everything taste great with bacon. 🙂
Bren, I love your site! This recipe looks fantastic: I might try it either this weekend or next week. I was just released today from physical therapy so I want to celebrate! ;P
I hope you’re having a great week!
