Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with silicone muffin cups.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the milk and breadcrumbs. Allow the mixture to sit for 2-3 minutes until moistened.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, moistened breadcrumbs, egg, onion, garlic, 2 tablespoons of ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, paprika, and parsley (if using). Mix gently with your hands until just combined; do not overmix.
Divide the meat mixture evenly among the prepared muffin cups, pressing lightly to shape them into small domes.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the remaining ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard to form a glaze.
Spoon the glaze evenly over the top of each meatloaf miniature.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf miniatures reaches 160°F (71°C) and the tops are caramelized.
Remove from the oven and let the mini meatloaves rest in the muffin tin for 5 minutes before removing.
Serve warm with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes and green beans!
