To deny that you enjoy a good meatloaf is just wrong. It certainly isn’t the bone dry please pass the ketchup special so many of us had growing up, but chances are at some point in your life you have tasted what the dinner gods had intended for this weeknight favorite. So what makes a great meatloaf? It must have a happy balance of tenderness, juiciness and flavor, that make you want to eat until the button on your jeans pops off.
In from stage left comes Executive Chef Erin Morrison’s homage to his mother’s kitchen, whose own recipe is apparently divine, the meatloaf bite. Not only does this umami packed passed hors d’oeuvre satisfy your carnivorous cravings, but it comes complete with smashed potatoes and a dollop of sour cream! If this miniature classic doesn’t have you asking for seconds and remind you to take your elbows off the table, I’ll eat my lima beans and okra for a week. Served gourmet style on an Asian spoon with garnish and silver tray this addition to our passed hors d’oeuvre menu is sure to be a crowd pleaser.
