Servings: 6

 

Ingredients:

3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon butter

2 teaspoons dry mustard

2 large eggs

1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

2 pounds pounds ground chuck or a mixture of 1 pound ground chuck and 1 ground pork or veal

3 tablespoons honey

1/4 cup milk

1 teaspoon prepared mustard

1 medium onion, chopped

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon salt

8 slices thick-cut bacon

6 oz. can tomato paste, divided

3 tablespoons water

Equipment:

frying pan

oven

glass baking pan

mixing bowl

Cooking instruction summary:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  2. Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium-low heat; cook the onion until soft but not brown, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Place a rack on or in a large, glass baking dish. Alternating slightly, lay the strips of bacon across the rack, one end in the middle and allowing the other end to hang over the side of the dish. Set aside.
  4. In a small bowl, mix 3 tablespoons of the tomato paste with the water, apple cider vinegar, honey, prepared mustard and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Set aside.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the remaining ingredients with the onion/garlic mixture and the remaining tomato paste and gently but thoroughly mix with your hands. Form into a loaf directly on top of the bacon, leaving enough of the bacon uncovered to wrap the top of the meatloaf. Spoon the glaze over the top of the meatloaf and spread down the sides, covering it completely. Lift the ends of the bacon hanging down the sides and place over the top of the meatloaf.
  6. Bake for an hour, or until the meatloaf is cooked through and the bacon is brown and crisp. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Food Joke

A Change In Plans Source: "Today's Woman" magazine, Barbara A Tyler. Martha Stewart will not be dining with us this Thanksgiving. I'm telling you in advance, so don't act surprised. Since Ms. Stewart won't be coming, I've made a few small changes: Our sidewalk will not be lined with homemade, paper bag luminaries. After a trial run, it was decided that no matter how cleverly done, rows of flaming lunch sacks do not have the desired welcoming effect. The dining table will not be covered with expensive linens, fancy China or crystal goblets. If possible, we will use dishes that match and everyone will get a fork. Since this IS Thanksgiving, we will refrain from using the plastic Peter Rabbit plate and the Santa napkins from last Christmas. Our centerpiece will not be the tower of fresh fruit and flowers that I promised. Instead we will be displaying a hedgehog-like decoration hand-crafted from the finest construction paper. The artist assures me it is a turkey. We will be dining fashionably late. The children will entertain you while you wait. I'm sure they will be happy to share every choice comment I have made regarding Thanksgiving, pilgrims and the turkey hotline. Please remember that most of these comments were made at 5:00 AM upon discovering that the turkey was still hard enough to cut diamonds. As accompaniment to the children's recital, I will play a recording of tribal drumming. If the children should mention that I don't own a recording of tribal drumming, or that tribal drumming sounds suspiciously like a frozen turkey in a clothes dryer, ignore them. They are lying. We toyed with the idea of ringing a dainty silver bell to announce the start of our feast. In the end, we chose to keep our traditional method. We've also decided against a formal seating arrangement. When the smoke alarm sounds, please gather around the table and sit where you like. In the spirit of harmony, we will ask the children to sit at a separate table. In a separate room. Next door. Now I know you have all seen pictures of one person carving a turkey in front of a crowd of appreciative onlookers. This will not be happening at our dinner. For safety reasons, the turkey will be carved in a private ceremony. I stress "private" meaning: Do not, under any circumstances, enter the kitchen to laugh at me. Do not send small, unsuspecting children to check on my progress. I have an electric knife. The turkey is unarmed. It stands to reason that I will eventually win. When I do, we will eat. Before I forget, there is one last change. Instead of offering a choice between 12 different scrumptious desserts, we will be serving the traditional pumpkin pie, garnished with whipped cream and small fingerprints. You will still have a choice: take it or leave it. Martha Stewart will not be dining with us this Thanksgiving. She probably won't come next year either. I am thankful.
