Buffalo Turkey Meatloaf Recipes

BUFFALO TURKEY MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with aluminum foil; spray lightly with cooking spray.
• Combine ground turkey, grated onion, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl; mix to combine. Transfer turkey mixture to baking pan and shape into a loaf.
• Bake meatloaf in the preheated oven until light golden, about 40 minutes.
• Melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in hot pepper sauce, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon onion powder. Pour evenly over meatloaf.
• Return meatloaf to the oven and cook until flavors are absorbed, about 5 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Combine sour cream, mayonnaise, and blue cheese crumbs in a bowl to make blue cheese dressing. Season with 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, and black pepper. Serve alongside meatloaf.

MINI BUFFALO TURKEY MEATLOAVES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450˚ F. Combine the onion, chopped carrot and garlic in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped; transfer to a large bowl. Add the turkey, egg, panko, milk, 2 tablespoons hot sauce, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Mix well with your hands. Form into four 3/4-inch-thick oval patties on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Bake the patties until lightly browned, firm and a thermometer inserted into the centers registers 160˚ F, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Whisk the melted butter and remaining 1/3 cup hot sauce in a bowl. Brush the tops of the meatloaves with half of the sauce, then return to the oven until the sauce is baked in, about 4 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush with the remaining sauce.
• Transfer the meatloaves to plates. Toss the broccoli, grated carrots and celery with the blue cheese dressing; serve with the meatloaves.

BACON-WRAPPED BUFFALO MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-heat. Cook and stir chopped bacon in hot butter until almost crisp, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Pulse onion, carrot, celery, red bell pepper, poblano pepper, mushrooms, and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. Add vegetable mixture and rosemary to bacon in the skillet; cook and stir until vegetables soften and sweeten, about 5 minutes.
• Mix vegetable mixture, bread crumbs, and milk together in a bowl. Let cool to room temperature. Stir egg, salt, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, and cayenne pepper into vegetable mixture. Add buffalo meat to vegetable mixture and mix with your hands until well-blended.
• Turn meat mixture out into prepared baking dish and shape into a 9x5x3-inch meatloaf. Lay bacon strips crosswise over the top of the meatloaf, tucking in ends of bacon under the loaf.
• Whisk rice vinegar, brown sugar, and mustard together in a bowl until glaze is smooth.
• Bake meatloaf in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Brush glaze over loaf and continue baking until no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 155 degrees F (68 degrees C). Cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
