Ingredients
Meatloaf
- 1 pound ground beef 85/15
- 1 pound ground pork
- 3 slices soft bread, crusts removed
- ¼ cup whole milk
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup prepared chili sauce
- ¼ cup grated yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Glaze
- 1 cup prepared chili sauce
- ½ cup ketchup
- ¼ cup packed brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste
Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir together all glaze ingredients: chili sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, and red pepper flakes.
- Break bread into bite-size pieces and add it to a small bowl. Drizzle milk over the bread and allow it to sit for 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, add all of the meatloaf ingredients: beef, pork, eggs, chili sauce, onion, parsley, thyme, garlic, Worcestershire, salt, and pepper, along with the soaked bread. Use your hands to combine everything evenly, or use a large wood spoon.
- Shape meat mixture into a rectangle or square (depending on your air fryer shape), ensuring the meatloaf is approximately 2 inches tall, all the way across.
- If desired, line your air fryer basket with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Place meatloaf in the center of the basket.
- Add half of the glaze to the top of the meatloaf, spreading it out just until it reaches the edges.
- Cook meatloaf at 350°F for 15 minutes.
- Add the remaining glaze, again spreading the sauce until it just reaches the edges. Cook 10 minutes more, or until the meatloaf reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Remove meatloaf from the air fryer. Let rest for 5 minutes. Then cut into thick slices and serve with your favorite sides.
