BBQ Meatloaf and gravy

Shagdog · 02-26-2017, 08:15 PM

There's a gravy Throwdown going on, so I used it as an excuse to make some meatloaf.

Started off with onion, Garlic, and shiitake mushrooms

Saute onions in some EVOO, add garlic and a little crushed red chili, then added the mushrooms. Not fully cooking this stuff, just softening up, adding flavor.

Set that aside to cool

Thought I had breadcrumbs, but I didn't. So I made some.

Milk, breadcrumbs, 1 egg, soy sauce, worchestershershire, thyme, rosemary powder, dijon mustard, pepper, salt, and some Dink's Udder Madness into the bowl with a pound of pork and a pound of beef

ready. But the shirley wasn't so I stashed it in the fridge

Once the shirley hit 300 I coated it with Dink's and put it in.. Drip pan underneath for the gravy

here she is at 110

Done at 155. At about 140 I coated her up with some Purple Pork Masters

I made a gravy with the drippings. Started with a medium roux of butter and flour, added the drippings and some beef broth, along with some garlic, grated onion, thin cut mushrooms, black pepper and soy sauce for a little extra umami. Anyone who has made a good roux knows, there's no time for pics. Besides, whisk in one hand, beer in the other. Where do I put the camera?

Also made some green beans with bacon, garlic, and balsamic

Dinner!

That's down right awesome. Too bad I'm too lazy to do all that for the gravy.
