    List of Ingredients




    Bacon-Wrapped Danish Meatloaf


    8 oz. ground beef chuck
    8 oz. ground pork
    1/2 cup bread crumbs
    1/2 cup heavy cream
    2 medium yellow onions, finely chopped
    2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
    1 medium carrot, finely chopped
    1 egg, lightly beaten
    Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
    6 slices bacon
    2 tbsp. unsalted butter
    2 tbsp. flour
    2 cups beef stock
    1/4 cup red currant jelly
    1 sprig thyme
    1 bay leaf

    Recipe




    Heat oven to 425°.

    Combine beef, pork, bread crumbs, cream, half the onions, garlic, carrot, egg, and salt and pepper in a bowl until evenly combined.

    Transfer mixture to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and form into an 8″ oval, about 1½â€³ thick.

    Place bacon lengthwise over meat loaf, and bake until bacon is browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the middle of the meat loaf reads 160°, about 30 minutes.

    Heat butter in a 10″ skillet over medium-high heat.

    Add remaining onions; cook until caramelized, about 8 minutes.

    Add flour; cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes.

    Add stock, jelly, thyme, and bay leaf; cook until thickened, about 15 minutes.

    Pour gravy through a fine strainer into a bowl; season with salt and pepper.

    Spoon gravy over meat loaf to serve.
