In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, chopped onion, minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Mix together gently using your hands or a spatula until all ingredients are fully incorporated. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the meatloaves dense.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each one into a small loaf about 4 inches long and 2 inches wide.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the mini meatloaves into the skillet.
Sear each meatloaf for 2-3 minutes per side until browned all over. Use a spatula to flip them gently to maintain their shape.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and cook for an additional 10-12 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the internal temperature of the meatloaves reaches 160Β°F (70Β°C).
While the meatloaves are cooking, prepare the glaze by combining the remaining ketchup and 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl.
Brush the glaze over the top of each meatloaf during the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, allowing it to caramelize slightly.
Remove the meatloaves from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
