Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Stretch out the bacon with the back of a knife, then trim off and finely chop any stray bits. Line a 900g loaf tin with the bacon, leaving an overhang, and set aside. Tip the rest of the ingredients into a bowl and scrunch well with your hands.
- Pack the mix into the tin, pat down well and wrap over the bacon. Put the tin on a tray and bake in the middle of the oven for 1 hr 15 mins or until firm and cooked through. Leave to rest for at least 15 mins, then serve sliced - or leave to cool completely and serve sliced cold for a buffet with salad, or stuffed into a roll. Either way, Cumberland sauce is a must (see tip, below).

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Saute the onion in a little butter over medium-low heat. When onion just starts to look done, add the chopped garlic and saute just a few minutes longer (this brings out the flavor of the onion and the garlic instead of adding them raw).
- Mix together all the ingredients except tomato sauce, basil, and 1/4 cup ketchup.
- Put into loaf pan and cook at 375 for 50 minutes. Mix together tomato sauce and 1/4 cup ketchup and pour over top of meatloaf, then sprinkle basil over that.
- Cook an additional 10 minutes. Let sit for 10 minutes after pulling out of oven.
- Note: feel free to add some steak seasoning in place of or in addition to the seasoned pepper for stronger flavor.
Tips:
- Choose the right venison meat. Use venison that is fresh and has been properly processed. Avoid using venison that has been frozen for more than a year, as this can affect the flavor and texture of the meatloaf.
- Grind the venison meat yourself. This will give you more control over the texture of the meatloaf. If you don't have a meat grinder, you can ask your butcher to grind the meat for you.
- Use a variety of seasonings. This will help to enhance the flavor of the meatloaf. Some popular seasonings for venison meatloaf include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and sage.
- Add some moisture to the meatloaf. This will help to prevent the meatloaf from becoming dry. Some good sources of moisture include eggs, milk, and bread crumbs.
- Cook the meatloaf at a low temperature. This will help to prevent the meatloaf from becoming tough. The ideal cooking temperature for venison meatloaf is 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the meatloaf rest before slicing. This will help to keep the juices in the meatloaf and prevent it from falling apart.
Conclusion:
Venison meatloaf is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following these tips, you can make a venison meatloaf that is moist, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. So next time you have some venison on hand, be sure to give this recipe a try.
