Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds ground beef
- 0.5 pounds ground pork
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 large eggs
- 0.25 cups whole milk
- 0.5 cups ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1.5 pounds Russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 cups heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, eggs, milk, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of pepper, and paprika. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan and press it down gently to shape it into a loaf. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for 60-65 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
While the meatloaf bakes, prepare the mashed potatoes. Place the peeled and cubed potatoes in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the butter, heavy cream, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.
Once the meatloaf is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Serve slices of the meatloaf alongside a generous scoop of mashed potatoes. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
