BETTER THAN MOM'S SWEET AND SAVORY MEATLOAF

Steps:

• PREP: Place oven rack on middle setting and preheat oven to 350 degrees. If using a less fatty meat, use a non-stick cooking spray to lightly coat the inside of your loaf pan. (If using ground beef, it is unnecessary to spray or grease your pan.). Lightly press the separate 2 tbsp of the packed brown sugar into the bottom of your loaf pan. Put like ingredients into prep bowls for ease in mixing later - this helps when you'll only have one hand (especially at least the dry ingredients of bread crumbs, salt, and pepper). Hint: thaw meat fully and bring cold ingredients (eggs, pasta sauce, sauce ingredients, etc) to room temperature prior to combining - this will aid in even cooking and correct cook time. (Waiting for items to reach room temperature is the bulk of your prep time, so your actual "work" prep time v. "waiting" prep time is about 5 min of work and 15-20 min of waiting.).
• SAUCE: Stir the remaining tbsp of brown sugar and the rest of the sauce ingredients in a bowl until combined. Sauce should be slightly runny. With a spatula, lightly drizzle some rows of the sauce over the brown sugar in the bottom of the loaf pan. Do not fully cover. Set the remaining majority of the sauce aside.
• LOAF: In a small skillet, sweat the diced onion over low heat. Half way through, add the garlic. (The onions and garlic do not cook inside the loaf and therefore you must heat them before.) Do not let them brown or carmelize. In a large mixing bowl, gently break up the meat with one hand (keep your other hand free and clean to hold the bowl and add in your other ingredients). When they are cool enough, slowly add in the onions and garlic until completely folded. Then add the pasta sauce, parsley, basil, garlic powder, and marjoram until blended. Next, you will alternate combining the dry ingredients (bread crumbs, salt, pepper combination) and half of the beaten eggs. Repeat dry ingredients and eggs until fully mixed. Shape mixture into a loaf and transfer it into your loaf pan. Gently press the loaf down and against the sides until you have a flat top service (as the meat cooks, it will pull away from the sides and form the classic "loaf" shape"). Pour the majority of the sauce over the top of your loaf and spread it evenly until covered (I like to keep just a tiny bity of sauce to drizzle over the loaf when there is about 10 min of cook time left, but you can add it all at this point if you like).
• Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, checking occassionally. Add more sauce when and if necessary. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.

SAVORY HERB MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Meatloaf Directions.
• Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Remove the crust from the rye, cit it into cubes and set it aside to go a little stale.
• Sautee the onions over medium heat until just starting to caramelize.
• Add mushrooms, minced garlic, salt and dill and cook until mushrooms start to soften.
• Drain off and discard the liquid (I use a sieve and coffee filter to keep the herbs in the mix).
• Slice the roasted red peppers into 1/4" strips and add to the mushroom mix.
• Mix the beef with the rye and the rest of the ingredients (except the vegetable mix) until smooth.
• Mix in vegetable mix until eavenly distributed, then form into loaves. I use 2 9 1/2"x13" cake pans. The loaves don't touch the sides, but they hold shape well.
• Bake for 1 to 1 1/2 hours until at least 155 degrees internal temperature.
• Sauce directions.
• Remove the crusts form the sourdough, cube and set aside to go stale.
• Drain the peppers, keeping about 2 oz of the liquid (if you roast your own peppers, just use 2 oz of water), cut the peppers into wide strips (1 1/2"-2").
• Put the peppers, 2 oz liquid, garlic, olive oil, chili, cayenne, salt and cumin in a large sauce pan over medium heat.
• Once it starts to boil, lower the heat, cover the pan and simmer for 10 min, stirring occasionally.
• Remove the cover and raise the heat level to cook off any remaining liquid then pour peppers into a food processor or blender (blender not ideal, but should work).
• In a seperate bowl, whisk together the sherry , vinegar and lemon juice.
• Toss the bread cubes in the liquid until it's all absorbed.
• Add the bread to the peppers along with the sriracha and walnuts, blend into a coarse paste and add salt to your taste.
• This can be served as a dip at this point, but for our purpose add the half and half and mix until evenly blended, serve warm over the meatloaf.
