Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds ground bison
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cup yellow onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 0.5 cup ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.25 cup ketchup (for topping)
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar (for topping)
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a loaf pan with olive oil or non-stick spray and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the milk and breadcrumbs. Let the mixture sit for 2–3 minutes to allow the breadcrumbs to soak up the milk.
Add the ground bison, egg, onion, minced garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, paprika, dried thyme, and balsamic vinegar to the bowl. Mix gently with a wooden spoon or your hands until fully combined, being careful not to overwork the meat mixture.
Transfer the bison mixture to the prepared loaf pan. Press it down gently to ensure it fills the pan evenly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the topping ingredients: 1/4 cup ketchup, brown sugar, and Dijon mustard. Spread this mixture evenly over the top of the meat loaf.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 55–60 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meat loaf reaches 160°F (71°C) on a meat thermometer.
Once cooked, remove the meat loaf from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This helps the juices redistribute and makes for easier slicing.
Serve warm with your choice of sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
