Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 slices bacon
  • 1/4 cup bourbon
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, cut into wedges
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, onion, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly blended, then shape the mixture into a loaf about 8 inches long.
  • Wrap the loaf with the bacon slices, tucking the ends underneath. Place the loaf on the prepared baking sheet.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the bourbon, brown sugar, and ketchup to make the glaze. Brush half of the glaze over the bacon-wrapped loaf.
  • Toss the sweet potato wedges with the olive oil, paprika, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Arrange the wedges around the meatloaf on the baking sheet.
  • Bake for 45 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, brush the remaining glaze over the meatloaf, and return it to the oven for another 15 minutes until the bacon is crisp and the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160 degrees.
  • Let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve slices with the roasted sweet potato wedges.

Brush the glaze on in two stages so the sugars do not burn during the longer bake time. If the bacon browns too quickly, loosely cover the meatloaf with foil for the final 10 minutes. Leftovers keep well in the fridge for up to three days and reheat nicely in a 350-degree oven.
