Ingredients
- 3 slices white sandwich bread, fresh or left out for a day
- 1/3 cup whole milk
- 1 cup roughly chopped mushrooms
- 1 lb. hot Italian sausage
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 1 cup finely chopped onions
- 1 cup finely grated carrots
- 1 large egg
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire
- 2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350.
-
In a food processor, process the bread to fine crumbs (1 cup). Transfer the bread crumbs to a large bowl, cover them with the milk, and let soak for 5 minutes.
-
In the processor, mince the mushrooms until fine. Add to the bread crumbs along with the sausage, beef, onions, carrots, egg, Worcestershire, salt, red pepper flakes, and black pepper. Gently mix with your hands, until just combined.
-
Coat a 9×5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray or grease it with butter and place the meatloaf mixture in the pan. In a small bowl, stir together the ketchup and brown sugar and coat the top of the meatloaf with it.
-
Bake until the meatloaf is cooked through and the glaze is slightly dried, about 1 hour. Let cool slightly before slicing. Some liquid will pool in the bottom of the pan. Some will be absorbed back into the meatloaf as it cools; sop up the rest with bread!
