# Method:
01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a loaf pan.
02 - In a large bowl, mix ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, eggs, milk, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, and thyme gently until just combined without overmixing.
03 - Form the mixture into a loaf on the prepared pan or press into the loaf pan. Mix glaze ingredients and spread half over the meatloaf.
04 - Bake for 40 minutes, remove from oven, spread remaining glaze over top, then bake 20 to 25 more minutes until internal temperature reaches 160°F.
05 - Place potatoes in a large pot with cold water and 1 tsp salt. Bring to boil, reduce heat, and simmer until tender, about 18 to 20 minutes.
06 - Drain potatoes and return to pot. Add warmed milk, butter, sour cream, salt, and pepper. Mash until creamy and smooth.
07 - Allow meatloaf to rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve alongside mashed potatoes.
