This meatloaf itself is a moist blend of beef and pork, lightened up with fresh breadcrumbs, egg, and onion.  Pretty much the basic recipe.  The glaze is an intense concoction of sweet and sour, with a hit of heat and anchored by lots of smooth Bourbon. The thick bourbon glaze looks like a lot in the photos, but once you slice the meat you’ll find that it isn’t at all overpowering, and in fact I think your friends and family will appreciate a small bowl of extra glaze on the dinner table.  Once you’ve tasted the sweet spicy sauce you won’t want to take a bite without it. 

What you will need

    • 1 lb ground beef
    • 1 lb ground pork
    • 1 egg, beaten
    • 1/2 cup fresh breadcrumbs (you can also use dried)
    • 1/2 yellow onion, peeled and minced
    • 1 tsp salt
    • lots of fresh cracked pepper
Bourbon glaze
  • 1 cup fruit jam or preserves, I like to use apricot or cherry
  • 1/4 cup dark brown sugar (use regular brown sugar if you don’t have dark)
  • 1 Tbsp hot chili sauce or Sriracha (use more if you like things hotter)
  • 1/2 cup bourbon (or any kind of whiskey or cognac)
  • 1/2 cup of your favorite barbecue sauce
  • 1/4 cup water
