How to Make Spicy Sausage Meatloaf Patties With Italian Barbecue Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 475°F (240°C).
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add bell pepper, half the onion, celery, and carrots. Sauté for 5 minutes, season with salt and pepper, and set aside to cool.
  3. In a large bowl, combine sausage, ground beef, egg, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and cooled vegetables. Mix well.
  4. Shape the mixture into 4 large oval patties (no more than 1 inch thick).
  5. Arrange patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  6. Bake for 17-18 minutes, or until cooked through.
  7. While the patties bake, prepare the sauce: Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
  8. Add diced pancetta and cook until crispy, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining chopped onion and garlic; cook for 8-10 minutes until softened.
  9. Stir in beef stock, crushed tomatoes, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
  10. Serve meatloaf patties topped with the Italian barbecue sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley or a side green salad, if desired.
