Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a loaf pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, eggs, milk, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and dried thyme. Mix until just combined.
Shape the mixture into a loaf shape on the prepared baking sheet or transfer it into the loaf pan. In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, and apple cider vinegar. Spread half the glaze over the meatloaf. Bake for 40 minutes, then spread the remaining glaze and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes.
While the meatloaf bakes, place the potatoes in a pot, cover with water, and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Boil and simmer the potatoes until tender, about 18-20 minutes. Drain, return to the pot, and add warmed milk, butter, sour cream, and seasonings. Mash until smooth.
Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve it with the mashed potatoes.

Notes

For ultra-creamy mashed potatoes, do not skimp on the butter and cream. Adjust seasoning to taste.
