For a richer flavor, consider using a combination of ground beef and ground pork. To prevent the meatloaf from sticking to the pan, line the baking dish with parchment paper. If you don't have steak sauce, you can substitute with an equal amount of barbecue sauce or balsamic glaze. Feel free to add other vegetables to the meatloaf, such as grated carrots or mushrooms.
