Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- For the meatloaf: Pour the milk over the bread and allow it to soak in for several minutes. Place the ground beef, milk-soaked bread, Parmesan, parsley, Italian seasoning, salt, seasoned salt and some pepper in a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs. With clean hands, mix the ingredients until well combined.
- Form the mixture into a loaf shape on a foil-lined broiler pan, which will allow the fat from the meat to drain. Lay the pancetta slices over the top, tucking them underneath the meatloaf to give the meatloaf some support.
- For the tomato sauce: Put the diced tomatoes into a bowl. Add the brown sugar, dry mustard and cayenne pepper and splash in the Worcestershire sauce. Stir the mixture until well combined. Pour one-third of the sauce over the top of the meatloaf.
- Bake for 45 minutes, and then pour another third of the remaining tomato sauce over the meatloaf. Bake until no longer pink in the middle, for an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to sit 10 minutes before serving.
- Serve with the remaining tomato sauce on the side as a dipping sauce.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, stir together the bread crumbs, parsley, eggs, milk, cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Add the turkey and gently stir to combine, being careful not to overwork the meat.
- On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, lay out the pancetta, overlapping the slices, into a large rectangle shape. In the middle of the rectangle, place the turkey mixture, shaping into a loaf. Using the parchment paper, wrap the pancetta up and around the turkey loaf to cover completely. Squeeze the parchment-covered loaf with your hands to secure the pancetta and solidify the shape of the loaf. While still covered in parchment, bake the loaf until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
- In a blender, combine the arugula and the mayonnaise and process until smooth. Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- To make the sandwiches, slice the rolls and spread with the arugula mayonnaise. Slice the turkey meatloaf and place on the rolls to make sandwiches.
BUFFALO MEATLOAF
Fabulous meatloaf with great flavour - I have been told it makes great sandwiches the next day but never have any left over to try it! Substitute ground beef and it is equally terrific. We will often make extra sauce and heat it in the microwave to serve on the side.

BISON MEAT LOAF #1 (BUFFALO)
Whenever possible, I buy grass fed Bison instead of ground beef. The flavor is much sweeter and because of the higher protein content, smaller portions are more satisfying. No antibiotics, no pesticides in the feed, no preservatives and no growth hormones. Even better, less fat, cholesterol and calories PLUS more iron, protein and B-12 than ground beef! A richer flavor and completely HEALTHY! I hope you enjoy this yummy recipe as much as we do.

BACON-WRAPPED BUFFALO MEATLOAF
Most people who replace their ground beef with buffalo, in recipes like meatballs, burgers, and meatloaf, are usually disappointed. Ground buffalo is much leaner than ground beef, which is the biggest challenge. In case you're new, it's the fat that provides most of the flavor and moisture. Also, for whatever reason, pre-packaged buffalo is ground very fine, almost to a paste, which can lead to a rubbery meatloaf, unless you use a few tricks.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-heat. Cook and stir chopped bacon in hot butter until almost crisp, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Pulse onion, carrot, celery, red bell pepper, poblano pepper, mushrooms, and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. Add vegetable mixture and rosemary to bacon in the skillet; cook and stir until vegetables soften and sweeten, about 5 minutes.
- Mix vegetable mixture, bread crumbs, and milk together in a bowl. Let cool to room temperature. Stir egg, salt, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, and cayenne pepper into vegetable mixture. Add buffalo meat to vegetable mixture and mix with your hands until well-blended.
- Turn meat mixture out into prepared baking dish and shape into a 9x5x3-inch meatloaf. Lay bacon strips crosswise over the top of the meatloaf, tucking in ends of bacon under the loaf.
- Whisk rice vinegar, brown sugar, and mustard together in a bowl until glaze is smooth.
- Bake meatloaf in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Brush glaze over loaf and continue baking until no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 155 degrees F (68 degrees C). Cool for 10 minutes before slicing.

FANCY MEATLOAF
"I was invited to cook dinner for Nora Ephron." As was wont to happen at one point in New York. Back in 2009, Sam Sifton was invited to a potluck in which "guests were meant to bring food inspired by Ephron's career or by the woman herself." He drew meatloaf, a dish she was known for. Here, in this recipe adapted from Gourmet, he pairs beef, veal, pancetta and Parmesan. The end result, he described, as "luxurious." And what did Ms. Ephron think? She called it "remarkable."

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Soak bread in milk for 10 minutes.
- Mix beef, veal, eggs, pancetta, Parmesan, parsley and lemon zest in a large bowl. Season liberally with salt and pepper. Squeeze the bread to remove excess milk, then chop and add it to the meat. Mix gently until well combined, but do not overmix. Transfer onto a board and shape into a fine meatloaf, shy of a foot in length and 4 inches across. Loosely cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
- Heat oil and butter in a large, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add meatloaf and sear without moving it until it is browned, about 5 minutes. Carefully slide a spatula under the meatloaf, then gently use another spatula to help turn it and brown the second side, again without moving it for 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
- Pour out all but 2 tablespoons of the fat, return skillet to the stove and raise heat to high. Add wine and deglaze pan, scraping up browned bits stuck to it with a wooden spoon. Return meatloaf to the skillet and then transfer to the oven, basting occasionally with the pan juices, until a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf reads 150 degrees, about 25 minutes.
- Transfer the meatloaf to a platter and let stand, tented with foil, 10 minutes. Slice, pour the pan juices over the top and serve.

BUFFALO AND PANCETTA MEAT LOAF
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Coarsely chop three fourths pancetta and in a large heavy skillet cook over moderate heat until crisp and golden, transferrng to paper towels to drain. Cool pancetta and reserve fat in skillet. Finely chop cooked pancetta. Finely chop onions and mince garlic. Cut celery and carrot into 1/4-inch dice.
- In skillet cook onions, garlic, celery, and carrots in reserved fat over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened. While onion mixture is cooking, coarsely chop parsley.
- In a large bowl stir together chopped pancetta, onion mixture, parsley, 1/2 cup ketchup, salt, and pepper, Worcestershire sauce, bread crumbs, buffalo, and eggs until just combined (do not overmix). In a shallow 13- by 9-inch baking pan form mixture into a 10- by 5-inch oval loaf and spread remaining 1/4 cup ketchup onto it. Drape remaining pancetta over loaf.
- Bake meat loaf in middle of oven 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted 2 inches into center registers 160°F. Let meat loaf stand 10 minutes and slice.
- Serve meat loaf with whipped potatoes.
Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will make the cooking process go much smoother.
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your meatloaf will be. Use fresh, high-quality ground beef and pancetta, and flavorful buffalo sauce.
- Don't overmix the meatloaf: Overmixing the meatloaf will make it tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
- Form the meatloaf into a loaf shape: Use your hands to form the meatloaf mixture into a loaf shape. Make sure the loaf is evenly shaped, so it cooks evenly.
- Bake the meatloaf at a high temperature: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the meatloaf and keep the inside moist.
- Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: Once the meatloaf is cooked, let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meatloaf and make it easier to slice.
Conclusion:
Buffalo and pancetta meatloaf is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion.
