our favorite meatloaf

Directions :

1. Position rack in center of oven; preheat to 350°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet or 13x9-inch shallow baking dish with foil. Soak breadcrumbs in milk in a large bowl until ready to use.
2. Pulse onion, celery, and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. (Alternatively, you can finely chop by hand.) Best restaurants near me
3. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium. Add onion mixture, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5-7 minutes.
4. Remove from heat, stir in Worcestershire, and scrape into the bowl with breadcrumb mixture. Add beef, pork, eggs, 1/4 cup ketchup, and remaining 1 1/4 tsp. salt and 1 tsp. pepper, then mix with your hands to combine.
5. Form meatloaf mixture into a long, well-packed, approximately 5 inch-wide loaf shape on a prepared baking sheet. Brush top of the loaf with 1/4 cup ketchup.
6. Bake meatloaf until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 155°F, 60–75 minutes. Let rest 15 minutes before slicing. Serve with more ketchup alongside.
