STEVE RINELLA'S VENISON MEATLOAF



Steve Rinella's Venison Meatloaf image

A lot of hunters complain that they use up all their roasts and steaks too quickly and then get stuck with a mountain of ground meat. When I hear this, I start singing the praises of wild game meatloaf. Granted, the name of the dish sounds a little folksy and oafish, but you can do some innovative...

Yield 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 21

1½ lbs. ground meat (90% lean game meat, 10% pork fat)
3 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil or 2 tbsp. bacon grease
1 medium onion, finely chopped
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
5 cloves garlic, minced
10 oz. baby spinach
¼ tsp. red pepper flakes
¼ tsp. freshly grated nutmeg
½ cup fresh breadcrumbs
¼ cup oatmeal
¼ cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
3 tbsp. finely chopped chives
Leaves from 3 sprigs thyme
½ cup milk
2 eggs
Butter for greasing the pan
3 oz. provolone or fontina cheese cut into sticks about ⅓" x 1" x 3"
3 tbsp. pine nuts, toasted
¼ cup seedy mustard
1 tsp. honey

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In a large sauté pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until browned, about 6 minutes. Season it with 1 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
  • Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  • Remove half the onion-garlic mixture and set that aside to cool. Then add the spinach and red pepper flakes to the half remaining in the pan and toss with tongs until the spinach is wilted.
  • Stir in the nutmeg. Set aside to cool.
  • Place the breadcrumbs, oatmeal, parsley, chives, and thyme in a small bowl. Pour the milk over the top and let sit while you mix the meat.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground meat, cooled onion-garlic mixture, and the eggs. Season well with salt and black pepper. Add the soaked bread crumb mixture and combine well. You could use a spoon for mixing, but it's easier to just use your hands.
  • Once the mixture is combined, lay a 1-inch layer of the meatloaf mixture on the bottom of a 1½-pound or 2-pound loaf pan. Pat it down so it reaches the corners, and allow it to come up the sides a bit. You will fill this cavity with the filling.
  • Next, lay the cooled spinach mixture over the meat layer, leaving a ½-inch border of meat around the spinach. Top the spinach with the cheese sticks, forming a stripe in the center that runs the length of the pan. Sprinkle the pine nuts over the cheese stripe then top with the remaining meat mixture and pat down. Be sure this top layer meets with the bottom meat mixture along the sides to form a seal.
  • Pat the top of the loaf so it's flat and even. Mix the mustard with the honey, then top of the loaf with this mixture.
  • Bake for 1 hour or until an instant-read thermometer reads 150°F when inserted in the center.

VENISON MEATLOAF

This mince loaf with sausage, bacon and game meat is as good cold as it is hot. Serve it with our fruity Cumberland sauce

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Main course, Starter

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 thin rashers streaky bacon
1kg minced venison
1 small onion , finely chopped
2 good-quality pork sausages , meat squeezed from the skins
1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, plus sprigs to decorate
50g fresh breadcrumb
1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
splash of Worcestershire sauce
1 egg

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Stretch out the bacon with the back of a knife, then trim off and finely chop any stray bits. Line a 900g loaf tin with the bacon, leaving an overhang, and set aside. Tip the rest of the ingredients into a bowl and scrunch well with your hands.
  • Pack the mix into the tin, pat down well and wrap over the bacon. Put the tin on a tray and bake in the middle of the oven for 1 hr 15 mins or until firm and cooked through. Leave to rest for at least 15 mins, then serve sliced - or leave to cool completely and serve sliced cold for a buffet with salad, or stuffed into a roll. Either way, Cumberland sauce is a must (see tip, below).

  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing. This will help to keep the juices in the meatloaf and make it easier to slice.
