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, onion, garlic, beaten eggs, milk, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined but do not overwork the mixture.
On a large piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap, flatten the meat mixture into a rectangular shape, about 1/2 inch thick.
Layer the ham slices evenly over the meat mixture, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges.
Layer the Swiss cheese slices over the ham in a single layer.
Using the parchment paper or plastic wrap to help, carefully roll the meat mixture into a tight log, starting from one of the longer edges. Pinch the seams and ends closed to seal the roll.
Transfer the rolled meatloaf, seam-side down, to the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup, brown sugar, and Dijon mustard to create the glaze.
Brush a generous amount of the glaze over the meatloaf, reserving some for later.
Place the meatloaf in the oven and bake for 50 minutes.
After 50 minutes, remove the meatloaf from the oven and brush it with the remaining glaze.
Return the meatloaf to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Let the meatloaf rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
