Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, egg, onion, garlic, ketchup, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper. Mix well with your hands or a wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
2
Transfer the meat mixture to a loaf pan or shape it into a loaf shape on a baking sheet. Place the loaf pan or baking sheet on a rimmed baking sheet to catch any drips.
3
Bake the meatloaf for 45-50 minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). While the meatloaf is baking, prepare the mashed potatoes and sautéed vegetables.
4
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve with mashed potatoes and sautéed vegetables.
