Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 0.5 pounds ground pork
- 0.75 cups plain breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cups milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 slices sliced deli ham
- 4 slices sliced Swiss or cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cups ketchup
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently with your hands until everything is just combined—avoid over-mixing.
Place the meat mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, and flatten it into a rectangular shape, about 1 inch thick.
Layer the slices of ham evenly over the meat mixture, leaving a small border around the edges. Then, add the cheese slices on top of the ham.
Carefully roll the meatloaf into a log shape, starting from one of the shorter ends. Pinch the seams together to seal the filling inside.
Place the meatloaf seam-side down on the baking sheet. Reshape if necessary to ensure it is even and compact.
In a small bowl, mix the ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard to make the glaze. Spread half of the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 50 minutes. After 50 minutes, spread the remaining glaze on top of the meatloaf and return it to the oven for another 10 minutes.
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
