Preparation

Chef’s notes

Meatloaf mix is a combination of ground beef, pork, and veal that is more flavorful than ground beef alone.
If you can't find meatloaf mix, equal parts ground beef and pork is a good substitute.
If you don't cook with pork, use ground chuck, which is 20% lean ground beef.
To make individual meatloaves of equal size, divide the meat mixture roughly in half and then each half into thirds. Shape into loaves.
