Have your butcher grind the pork shoulder roast. The meatloaf and gravy are equally as good served as a traditional plated dinner with the potatoes on the side. Ingredients:
1/2 (16-oz.) package hickory-smoked bacon slices, coarsely chopped |
2 1/2 pounds pork shoulder roast (boston butt), ground |
4 large eggs |
2 cups panko (japanese breadcrumbs) |
1/4 cup grated red onion |
1 tablespoon finely ground pepper |
1 tablespoon sriracha asian hot chili sauce |
1 tablespoon dijon mustard |
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce |
2 teaspoons sea salt |
5 hickory-smoked bacon slices, cut into 1-inch pieces |
1 1/2 pounds tomatoes, halved |
1/2 large yellow onion, sliced |
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar |
1 tablespoon dijon mustard |
1 teaspoon sea salt |
2 pounds yukon gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch-thick pieces |
1 tablespoon sea salt |
1 cup panko (japanese breadcrumbs) |
2 cups freshly grated sharp cheddar cheese |
1/2 cup chopped green onions |
1/2 cup sour cream |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 teaspoon sea salt |
24 hearty bread slices, grilled |
garnish: green onions |
Directions:
1. Prepare Meatloaf: Preheat oven to 325°. Pulse chopped bacon 4 to 5 times in a food processor until finely chopped. Combine bacon, pork, and next 8 ingredients, using hands. Transfer pork mixture to a lightly greased 8 1/2- x 4 1/2-inch loafpan. 2. Bake at 325° for 1 hour and 45 minutes to 2 hours or until a meat thermometer inserted in center registers 160°. 3. Prepare Gravy: Cook bacon slices in a large cast-iron skillet 8 to 10 minutes or until crisp; remove bacon, and drain on paper towels, reserving drippings in skillet. Increase heat to medium-high. Add tomatoes, cut sides down, and onion slices. Cook 6 to 7 minutes on each side or until charred. Remove from heat. Pulse tomatoes, onions, vinegar, and next 2 ingredients in a food processor just until coarsely chopped and combined. Stir in bacon. 4. Prepare Potatoes: Preheat broiler with oven rack placed in middle position. Bring Yukon gold potatoes, 1 Tbsp. sea salt, and water to cover to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat; reduce heat to medium, and cook 15 minutes or until tender; drain. Combine potatoes, panko, and next 5 ingredients in a large bowl; mash with a potato masher to desired consistency. 5. Place 12 meatloaf slices on a lightly greased rack in a broiler pan. Spoon potato mixture generously over meatloaf. Broil 4 to 5 minutes or until potatoes are golden and crisp. Serve between bread slices with gravy. |
