No one in our household liked meatloaf until I threw this together one day. Now even my picky 8-year-old will eat it! It is really moist which is why everyone likes it but has a bit of crust on outside.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 0.5 pounds ground pork
- 1 egg
- 0.33 cups finely chopped apple
- 0.5 cups finely chopped onion
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons pepper
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cups bread crumbs
- 0.5 cups quick cooking oats
Instructions
-
1
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
-
2
Mix the beef, pork, egg, apple, onion, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl until evenly mixed. Add the Cheddar cheese, bread crumbs, and oats; mix again until evenly mixed. Pack the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan.

Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (72 degrees C). Allow the meatloaf to rest for 10 minutes before slicing to keep the meat from crumbling.

Chef John's White Bread
White bread is buttery and slightly sweet with a neutral flavor that lets the sandwich ingredients shine. I mostly eat whole wheat bread, but I occasionally indulge in some white. Whether you're a nostalgic baby boomer like I am, or just a curious millennial wondering what classic white bread should taste like, I really do hope you give this a try soon.
Honey Mustard Sauce
This is a great dipping sauce for chicken, meatballs, whatever. It's even good on baked potatoes.
Chocolate Frosting with Cocoa Powder
