Provided by AllysKitchen

Number Of Ingredients 17

Ingredients

1 pound ground bison
1 pound ground pork
2 eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
2 teaspoons sea salt
2 teaspoons dried basil
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/3 cup fresh parsley and cilantro, chopped
1 tablespoon stone ground mustard
1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes
1/2 cup ketchup + more for drizzle when baking
2 tablespoons Worcestershire
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon hot sauce (your choice)
1 1/2 cups Italian bread crumbs
1 teaspoon ground cumin
4 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (divided)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees fahrenheit. Crumble the ground meat together in a large mixing bowl. Set aside. In another small bowl, combine the beaten eggs, garlic, salt, basil, oregano, parsley/cilantro, mustard and chili flakes and blend. Blend this mixture into the meat then add the bread crumbs and blend well. Form into a meatloaf. Drizzle half of the olive oil in a skillet or baking dish and place the meatloaf in the pan. I created an oval shape about 3-4" deep in the center-most part. Combine the ketchup, Worcestershire, salt, hot sauce, cumin and remaining olive oil in a small bowl and blend. Pour this on top of the meatloaf and spread to cover the top. Drizzle (zigzag) with some more ketchup. Bake in a preheated 375 oven for about 60-65 minutes. Remove and let it rest about 15 minutes before cutting and serving.

Tips for Making Bison Meatloaf

- Use a variety of meats. Bison is a lean meat, so it's a good idea to mix it with other meats, such as ground beef or pork, to add flavor and moisture. - Don't overwork the meat. Overworking the meat will make it tough. Just mix the ingredients until they are combined. - Use fresh ingredients. The fresher the ingredients, the better the meatloaf will taste. - Don't overcook the meatloaf. Overcooked meatloaf will be dry and tough. Cook it until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. - Let the meatloaf rest before slicing. Let the meatloaf rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meatloaf, making it more moist and flavorful.

Conclusion

Bison meatloaf is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give bison meatloaf a try. You won't be disappointed.
