Southwestern Beef & Pork Meatloaf


This recipe makes a family sized meatloaf. With one pound of ground chuck and one pound of ground pork, it can easily feed your family for dinner. If you're preparing it for one or two diners, you'll have delicious leftovers for lunch the next day and don't forget meatloaf sandwiches!!

1 pound ground chuck (80/20)
1 pound ground pork
1/3 cup diced yellow onion
1/4 cup diced green bell pepper
1 red jalapeno, diced
1 green jalapeno, diced
2 T. chili powder
1 t. granulated garlic
1 t. ground cumin
1 t. salt
1/2 t. freshly ground black pepper
1 cup old fashioned oats
3/4 cup ketchup (plus more for the topping)
2 eggs, lightly beaten

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with non-stick spray.

In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Mix everything together until well combined. Use your hands to mix the ingredients very lightly.

Shape into a loaf shape on the prepared baking sheet. Place in oven and bake for 45 - 50 minutes or until internal temperature is 160 degrees. 

Remove from oven and top with additional ketchup. Using a knife, spread evenly over the entire top of the meatloaf.  Return to oven for an additional 10 minutes or so.
