Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 1 cup finely chopped onion

  • ½ cup finely chopped green onions

  • 1 carrot, finely chopped

  • 1 rib celery, finely chopped

  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic

  • ⅔ cup ketchup, divided

  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

  • 2 teaspoons salt

  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground black pepper

  • 1 ½ pounds ground beef

  • ¾ pound spicy ground pork sausage

  • 1 cup bread crumbs

  • ⅓ cup minced fresh parsley

  • 2 large eggs, slightly beaten

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Heat butter in a large heavy skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion, green onions, carrot, celery, and garlic until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Cover skillet with a lid and cook, stirring occasionally, until carrot is tender, about 5 more minutes. Stir 1/3 cup ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper into vegetable mixture; cook until warmed through, about 1 minute.

  3. Mix ground beef, sausage, vegetable mixture, bread crumbs, parsley, and eggs in a large bowl; form into a loaf and place in a rectangular baking pan with 2-inch high sides. Cover loaf with remaining 1/3 cup ketchup.

  4. 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 (70 degrees C).
