Bill Blass'S Meatloaf - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup chopped celery
1 onion, chopped
3 tablespoons butter
2 lbs ground sirloin
1/2 lb ground veal
1/2 lb ground pork
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/3 cup sour cream
1/2 cup soft breadcrumbs
1 pinch dried thyme
1 pinch dried marjoram
salt and pepper
1 egg
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 cups Heinz Chili Sauce
3 slices bacon

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350F degrees; oil a 8x4 loaf pan and set aside.
In a large, heavy skillet over medium heat, saute the celery and onion in the butter until soft; remove from heat and set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
Add the meats, parsley, sour cream, bread crumbs and spices to the skillet.
Whisk the egg with the worcestershire sauce and add to mixture.
Using a wooden spoon or your hands, combine the mixture and mold into a loaf shape.
Place the meat loaf in the prepared pan; top with the chili sauce, then the bacon slices.
Place on a cookie sheet-- to catch any drips-- and bake until cooked through and browned, at least 1 hour.
