Ingredients
2 lb ground beef or turkey
1 cup panko
1 cup buttermilk
2 eggs
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1½ tsp salt
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp basil
½ tsp pepper (more to taste)
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
½ cup brown sugar
1 cup ketchup
1 tsp mustard
4-6 slices pancetta (or bacon)
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl, mix together panko and buttermilk.
Mix in eggs, ground turkey or beef, onion, garlic, salt, oregano, basil, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce.
Shape into a loaf (your hands are the best tool to use) and place in a rimmed baking pan lined with foil.
Mix sugar, ketchup, and mustard and spread over meatloaf.
Top with pancetta.
Bake 1 hour and 15 minutes. (You may want to drain any excess liquid about half way through.)
Leftovers make great sandwiches
