Choose the Right Meat - I use ground beef most frequently, as we raise our own beef and that's what we have on hand. However, you can also use pork, Italian sausage, or a mix of meats. A popular combination is beef, pork, and veal, known as "meatloaf mix" in many grocery stores. The beef provides a strong flavor, the pork adds fat and tenderness, and the veal offers a delicate texture!| www.amodernhomestead.com
