Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

5 pounds chopped meat (2 1/2 pounds beef, 2 1/2 pounds pork)
15 ounces Italian bread crumbs
10 eggs
1 chicken bouillon cube, dissolved in 1/2 cup hot water
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan
Chopped parsley
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons butter
4 cloves smashed garlic cloves
2 tablespoons flour
2 (14-ounce) cans chicken stock
2 tablespoons tomato paste

  • Place in oven and cook for 45 minutes, or until meatloaf has an internal temperature of 160 degrees.
  • To make Tomato Gravy: In a large saucepan, heat butter over medium-high heat. Allow butter to foam and begin to brown. Add smashed garlic and allow garlic to brown slightly.

  • Plunge onions a batch at a time (there should be 3 batches) into hot oil and fry until extremely golden brown and crispy. Remove from fryer and place on a paper towel to drain. Serve atop dressed meatloaf.
