Meatloaf with Chili Sauce From Martha Stewart Living

Prep Time 15 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 15 minutes
Yield Serves 8
 

Ingredients
1/2 cup milk
4 slices white sandwich bread, torn into pieces
1 1/2 pounds ground sirloin
1 1/2 pounds ground pork
2 small onions, finely chopped
6 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup chili sauce, plus 1/4 cup for glaze
1 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
Coarse salt and ground pepper

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with rack in center. In a large bowl, pour milk over bread; let soak, about 30 seconds. Add sirloin, pork, onion, garlic, 1/2 cup chili sauce, parsley, Parmesan, eggs, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Using your hands, mix until combined; do not overmix or meatloaf will be dense.
Divide mixture in half. Gently pat each half into a log, and place each log in an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-inch loaf pan. Do not press down or into corners.
Bake 50 minutes. Brush tops of loaves with remaining 1/4 cup chili sauce; continue cooking until juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 160 degrees, about 10 minutes.
Remove from oven; let rest 5 minutes. Turn loaves out of pans; slice each into eight 3/4-inch-thick slices.

Cook's Note

For a loaf with crisp edges, shape the meat mixture with your hands into a log slightly smaller than the pan. And for a light texture, donĂ¢€™t press the log into the pan; just drop it in.
