A few months ago, my sister Anna and I were planning food for a family gathering.
What usually ends up happening is that everyone there pitches in a little food and *voila* a meal is formed.
For this meal, we decided on meatloaf for the main dish. I was going to give some pork sausage from our Berkshire pigs and she was going add in 100% grass-fed ground beef and lamb from their farm, Blissful Bee Pastures.
At the time I didn’t really think too much about the details of the meal. We needed an easy, fast way to feed our family of 7, her family of 6, and our parents/in-laws and meatloaf was something that was easy to multiply many times to feed a large number of people.
Plus, meatloaf has never been my favorite dish (except the one time I made one that, I think, had a pound of bacon for every pound of beef. 🤣)
But then I tasted THIS meatloaf.
Good grief – it was fantastic! The blends of flavors of the beef, lamb and pork together was a mouth-watering meat trio of wonderfulness!
The meatloaf recipe I made is a simple one. All meatloaf recipes I make are simple….sort of a “toss everything into a pan and mix it together” sort of thing.
I don’t even usually measure anything, but I made this again the other day and took measurements to help you get started if you’re not a “toss it together” kind of cook. 😉

Notes
PS: Did you know…Anna and I are connected by more than just sisterhood….our husbands are also brothers! 🥰 They live just down the road from us, and also borrow our pastures, so we get together for a lot more than just meatloaf. What a blessing to have their farm and ours so close.
