Recipe Instructions

Heat the oven to 325 degrees.

Combine the beef, carrots, onion, salt and pepper to taste, garlic, garlic powder, hot sauce, sun-dried tomatoes, mushrooms and bread crumbs in a large bowl, mixing well. Shape the mixture into a mound and place the meatloaf in a small metal roasting pan. Drizzle the wine and broth around the loaf and scatter garlic cloves about.

Bake the meatloaf, basting occasionally, until juices run clear when it's pierced with a fork, 40 minutes. Place the meatloaf on a platter and keep it warm.

Return the pan to the oven and bake the garlic until it's tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Strain the pan juices into a serving bowl. Squeeze the garlic from its skin and add it to the bowl. Serve the pan juices and garlic on the side with the meatloaf.
