Steps:
- Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
- Put the cranberries, ketchup, honey, sriracha, 1/2 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon of the mustard in a small saucepan and stir to combine. Heat over medium-high heat until the mixture starts to bubble, then reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and the cranberries soften, about 10 minutes. Use a potato masher to crush the cranberries until mostly smooth. Add the rosemary and 1/4 teaspoon salt and set aside to cool slightly.
- Grate the carrot and onion on the small shredding side of a box grater into a large bowl. (This will save any onion liquid, which will help keep the meatloaf moist.) Add the beef, turkey, egg, barley, Worcestershire, remaining 2 teaspoons of the mustard, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Use your hands to mix everything together until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet and shape into a 9-by-4-inch loaf using your hands. Brush the meatloaf on all sides with half of the cranberry glaze. Bake until the glaze starts to adhere and dry slightly, about 15 minutes. Brush the meatloaf on all sides with the remaining glaze and bake until a thermometer inserted into the center of the meatloaf registers 155 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes. Garnish with rosemary sprigs before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. For the glaze, spread the brown sugar over the bottom of a greased loaf pan and spread the cranberry sauce over the sugar. In a large bowl mix all the remaining ingredients until well incorporated. Form the meat mixture into the loaf pan, laying out over the cranberry glaze. Bake in 350 degree oven for 1 hour, (be sure to assemble and cook the potato gratin along with the meatloaf, as they have the same cooking times). Turn out the loaf and set aside.
- Blanch beans in boiling, salted water for 1 minute and then shock in an ice water bath. When ready for dinner, toss the beans with walnut oil, salt and pepper and slivered almonds and place on a baking sheet and place in the oven with the meatloaf for the last 10 minutes before the meatloaf comes out.;
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Season potatoes with salt and pepper and layer in buttered 2 inch deep baking pan. Bring the rest of the ingredients to a boil and pour over the potatoes while hot, until potatoes are almost covered. Bake at 400 degrees until tender, about one hour.
- To assemble the dish, slice the meatloaf into 1 1/2-inch thick slices, and plate with a nice square of the potato gratin, and the beans along side. Serve everything warm.

CRANBERRY BALSAMIC TURKEY MEATLOAF
Turkey meatloaf is a tricky thing. Too few flavoring ingredients, too little moisture or too many bread crumbs will turn ground turkey into brick of sawdust no amount of gravy will save.

Steps:
- 1. At least one hour before assembling the meatloaf, prepare the cranberry/balsamic topping.
- 2. In a non-reactive saucepan with cover, over medium low heat, simmer the cranberries, sugar and balsamic vinegar until the cranberries have burst and the mixture thickens, about 20 minutes. Stir occasionally and do not allow the mixture to boil dry or scorch. Set aside to cool.
- 3. In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the celery and hing and saute until somewhat softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- 4. In a large mixing bowl, stir together eggs, ricotta, salt and pepper. Add the ground pork, panko bread crumbs and celery mixture and quickly and gently fold or mix with hands until all ingredients are mixed. Do not over mix or the mixture will become too dense.
- 5. Spoon the meatloaf mixture into a glass baking pan small enough to keep the mixture at least two inches thick. Spread the cranberry mixture on top.
- 6. Bake one hour or until the internal temperature reaches 165F to 175F. Allow to sit 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350º F.
- 2. Combine all ingredients & shape into a loaf.
- 3. Place into a 9x13 or a meatloaf pan & cover with aluminum foil.
- 4. Bake at 350º F. for 1-1.25 hrs.
Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor. Frozen or dried cranberries can be used in a pinch, but they will not have the same tartness and juiciness as fresh cranberries.
- Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture. Overmixing will make the meatloaf tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a loaf pan that is at least 9x5 inches. A smaller pan will make the meatloaf too thick and it will not cook evenly.
- Bake the meatloaf at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 hour, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center reads 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meatloaf.
Conclusion:
Cranberry meatloaf is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of tart cranberries and savory meatloaf is sure to please everyone at the table. This recipe is also a great way to use up leftover cranberries from Thanksgiving or Christmas.
