Smoked Bacon-Wrapped Mini Meatloaves
Little meatloaves are wrapped in bacon and smoked. You know that it has to be tasty!
Ingredients
- 3 lbs ground beef could substitute half or all for ground turkey
- 2 cups seasoned bread crumbs
- 1 lb bacon
- 1 onion finely diced
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 c Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 c milk
- 1/4 c ketchup
- 1 tbs garlic powder
- 1 tbs parsley
- 1 tsp basil
- salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.
- I used a 1/4 cup measuring cup to form a perfect "mignon" sized meatloaf.
- For make ahead and freezing, plop them down on a pre-cut piece of saran wrap, then wrap the bacon around and seal the saran wrap tightly around it.
- For making fresh, just plop them on whatever dish you're using and wrap with bacon.
- Set up grill for indirect cooking. Get grill temp to around 300-350 degrees.
- Add hickory chips to coals and smoke meatloaves for about 30 minutes.
- If frozen, cook them for about 45 minutes.
- Makes about 16-20 servings.
