the Season’s recipe
Applewood-Bacon-Wrapped Carolina Bison Meat Loaf
Serves 15
Chef’s note: “The Bison Meat Loaf is actually a creation of our
sous chef, Matthew Lineback. It is his take on an old-time childhood favorite. Due to the abundant production of bison in this
area, it only made sense to give it a twist and do this meat loaf
in particular with bison and bison sausage. This is one of our
most popular dishes. The combination with garden herb pesto
and grainy mustard jus makes this once-simple dish a much
more refined version with a subtle, yet complex, plethora of
flavors.”

½ pound pancetta, diced medium
1 cup minced celery
