Ingredients

    2 Tbs. EVOO, plus some for drizzling
    1 red bell pepper, finely chopped
    1 large onion, chopped and divided
    2 ribs celery, chopped
    1 C. shredded carrots
    Salt & pepper, for seasoning, plus coarse black pepper for finishing sauce
    1/2 lb. ground beef
    3/4 lb. bulk hot sausage
    3/4 lb. ground sweet sausage
    1 egg
    3/4 C. Italian bread crumbs
    1/2 C. grated Romano cheese
    1/8 lb. pancetta (4 slices), chopped
    3 cloves garlic, chopped
    Splash red wine
    1/2 C. beef stock
    1 can petite diced tomatoes
    1 Tbs. Worcestershire sauce
    2 tsp. hot sauce

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425.
2. Heat a small skillet over medium heat with 2 Tbs. EVOO. When the oil is hot, saute the red pepper, half the onions, celery and carrots together, 5 minutes, season with salt & pepper then remove to a plate to cool.
3. Mix ground beef and sausages with egg, bread crumbs, cheese, and cooled vegetables. Form 4 large (or 8 small) oval shaped patties no more than 1 1/4 inches thick then drizzle with EVOO. Place in the oven on a cookie sheet and bake 30-45 minutes, until cooked through.
4. Heat a medium sauce pot over medium high heat. Add a drizzle of EVOO to the pan and the pancetta. Let the pancetta crisp up a bit and render fat, then add onions and garlic and cook until tender, 8-10 minutes. Add a splash of red wine to deglaze the pan. Stir in the beef stock and tomatoes and season sauce heavily with coarse black pepper. Add Worcestershire and hot sauce and reduce heat to warm.
5. Serve meatloaves with Italian barbecue sauce on top.
