Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lb Ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 0.5 lb Ground pork
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 1 unit Large egg
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely diced
- 3 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 0.25 cup Ketchup
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp Parsley, chopped
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Paprika
- 0.5 cup Ketchup (for glaze)
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar
- 1 tsp Apple cider vinegar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper or lightly grease a loaf pan.
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and milk. Let them soak for 5 minutes until the breadcrumbs are soft.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, soaked breadcrumbs, egg, diced onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, Dijon mustard, parsley, salt, pepper, and paprika.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly with clean hands or a large spoon until evenly combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.
Transfer the meat mixture to the prepared baking tray or loaf pan. Shape it into a loaf if using a tray.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar to make the glaze.
Spread half of the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove it from the oven, spread the remaining glaze on top, and return it to bake for an additional 15 minutes.
Once the meatloaf reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C), remove it from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm and enjoy!
