Smoked Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf
Recipe by Jason Hill – CookingSessions.comIngredients
- 9-10 pieces applewood smoked bacon
- 2 pounds raw Spicy Italian Sausage
- 1 cup chopped green olives
- 1 cup chopped pepperoni slices
- 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
- 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 ½ cups pizza sauce optional
Instructions
- Line a sheet pan with plastic wrap or parchment paper. Arrange bacon into a weave pattern on the pan. Top evenly with the spicy sausage mixture. Sprinkle over the green olives and pat into the sausage.
- Along the middle arrange a long layer of the pepperoni, mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Roll up the “fatty” and be sure the edges are sealed so the melted cheese won’t seep out.
- Place in a smoker at 250 F for 2-3 hours, or until the internal temperature is 165 F. If you are pressed for time, you can raise the temperature and cook for a shorter amount of time. If you don’t have a smoker, you can also bake this in the oven.
- When done, and the bacon is crispy, remove and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice into medallions and top with pizza sauce if desired.
