Ingredients
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garilc, chopped
- 1 1/2 cup finely diced celery
- 1 1/2 cup finely diced carrots
- 1 1/2 cup finely diced onion
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 pound ground veal
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 cup chopped parsley
- 1 cup chopped chives
- 2 ounce worcestershire sauce
- 4 tablespoon butter, sliced
- salt and pepper, to taste
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat and cook the garlic, celery, carrots, and onion until soft, about 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and let cool to room temperature.
- In a large bowl, carefully mix together the three meats, then add the remaining ingredients, including your garlic-onion mix. Season with salt and pepper. If you want to check your seasonings, you can cook 1 teaspoon of the meat in a small pan and taste it.
- Put the meat mixture into a 9 by 13 inch baking dish and using your hands, form the 3 pound meat mixture into a loaf. Bake in the oven for 1 hour until cooked and the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees, about 1-1 ½ hours. 10 minutes before the meatloaf is done, add the butter slices to the top and put back in the oven so that the crust caramelizes.
