Units
Scale
- 1/2 cup (4oz.) onion, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup (4oz.) bell pepper, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 1/4 pound (20oz) lean ground beef (pork or veal as a substitute)
- 1/2 cup (4oz.) breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/2 cup (4oz) Sir Kensington's Spiced Ketchup
- 4 oz Pt. Reyes blue cheese
- Additional Sir Kensington's Spiced Ketchup for topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine the onion, bell pepper, garlic, ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, pepper, parsley, and 1/2 cup of Sir Kensington’s Spiced Ketchup. Mix thoroughly with your hands until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- On a piece of parchment paper, flatten the meat mixture into a rectangle about 1 inch thick.
- Place the Pt. Reyes blue cheese in a line down the center of the meat mixture.
- Carefully roll the meat mixture around the cheese, forming a loaf shape and ensuring the cheese is completely enclosed.
- Transfer the meatloaf to a baking dish and spread additional Sir Kensington’s Spiced Ketchup over the top to create a glaze.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) and the top is caramelized and slightly crispy.
- Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
For a spicier kick, use the spicy variety of Sir Kensington’s Ketchup. Leftover meatloaf makes excellent tacos. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Substitute ground pork or veal for a different flavor profile.
