Instructions:
-
Combine all ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, finely chopped onion, diced green pepper, diced tomato, yellow cornmeal, beaten egg, dried sage, freshly ground black pepper, and salt. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
-
-
Divide mixture: Once the ingredients are evenly mixed, divide the mixture into two portions.
-
Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Prepare loaf pans: Grease or line two 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pans to prevent sticking.
-
Fill loaf pans: Place each portion of the mixture into the prepared loaf pans, shaping them to fit the pans evenly.
-
Bake: Transfer the loaf pans to the middle rack of the preheated oven. Bake for approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the loaves reads 160°F (71°C).
-
Cool: Once baked, remove the meatloaves from the oven and allow them to cool in the pans for about 20 minutes. This cooling period helps the meatloaves set and makes them easier to slice.
-
Serve or store: After cooling, you can serve one meatloaf immediately while it’s warm and tender. The second loaf can be wrapped and frozen for later enjoyment, shared as a thoughtful gift, or sliced up for delicious sandwiches.
With its flavorful blend of ingredients and versatile serving options, this Two for One Meatloaf recipe is sure to become a staple in your kitchen repertoire. Enjoy the hearty goodness and savor every bite! 🍽️
