it's meatloaf day

what i learned about meatloaf today

raw onion, garlic and shallot
ground veal, ground lamb, ground turkey thigh - third pound each
fine-chopped carrot
one egg
handful of panko
ten strips cooked bacon, cooled and chopped into lardons.
trader joe's soyiyaki
old bay
fresh black pepper
kosher salt

cover with bacon. it's done when the meat is cooked to your liking. which for me is completely. hence the bacon, so it stays moist.

what i don't like in meatloaf

thyme
raw bacon
ketchup
