Best 7 Irish Meat Loaf Recipes

STOUT MEATLOAF WITH IRISH CHEDDAR & OATS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350°F.
• Line a 5 x 9.5 inch loaf pan (or similar) with parchment paper and grease it well with cooking oil. Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl combine the ground pork, ground beef, egg, grated Irish cheddar, onions, garlic, parsley, thyme, oats, stout, sugar, ground caraway seeds, salt and pepper.
• Roll up your sleeves and get to work - mix all the ingredients until very well incorporated. There should not be any excess moisture, nor should the mixture be sticky.
• Transfer the mixture to the lined, greased loaf pan and press it down to assist it to take the shape of the loaf pan.
• Bake at 350°F for at least 50 minutes, most likely a full hour. When the internal temp of the loaf reaches 155°F it is done. Use a food thermometer (http://amzn.to/2oKbVoY).
• Remove the stout meatloaf from the oven and carefully pour out and reserve the abundant juices that will be surrounding it in a small bowl or a ramekin. (You can either thicken the reserved juices in a sauce pan with some flour for a gravy or simply drizzle over the slices of meatloaf when serving.)
• Let the meatloaf rest for 5-10 minutes before removing it from the loaf pan and slicing. While slicing, more delicious liquid will gently ooze out from the stout meatloaf.
• Serve garnished with chopped parsley.
