Ingredients

• 1 lb Ground beef (80% lean)
• 0.5 lb Ground pork
• 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 1 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Yellow onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 0.25 cup Ketchup
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tbsp Parsley, chopped
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• 0.25 cup BBQ sauce or extra ketchup (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, onion, garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to keep the meatloaf tender.

Step 2

Shape the mixture into a loaf shape, approximately 8-9 inches long and about 3-4 inches wide. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat a large cast-iron or non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, carefully place the meatloaf in the skillet.

Step 4

Cook the meatloaf for 3-4 minutes on each side to brown and form a crust. Carefully use a spatula to roll and rotate the loaf until all sides are golden brown.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a lid or foil, and allow the meatloaf to cook through for 25-30 minutes. Check periodically to ensure it does not burn, adjusting the heat if necessary.

Step 6

After 25 minutes, brush the top of the meatloaf with BBQ sauce or ketchup. Cover again and allow it to cook for an additional 5 minutes until the topping caramelizes slightly.

Step 7

To ensure the meatloaf is fully cooked, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature, which should read 160°F (71°C).

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 9

Serve warm with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes or sautéed vegetables. Enjoy!
