Ingredients
    For the Meatloaf:
  • 700 g ground beef
  • 225 g ground pork
  • 1 onion (medium, finely chopped)
  • 2 garlic (cloves, minced)
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 eggs (large)
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 2 tbsp worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried thyme (optional)
    • For the Glaze:
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 190°C. Line a baking sheet or loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, eggs, milk, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, salt, pepper, and thyme. Mix gently until just combined—avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.
  3. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet or pan. Shape it into a loaf.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together ketchup, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar. Spread half of the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and spread the remaining glaze on top. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 70°C.
  6. Allow the meatloaf to rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a side of your choice.

  7. Your traditional Meatloaf is ready. Bon Appetit!
