Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Adjust rack to top position (middle and top positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

  • Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Zest and quarter lemon. Halve and core apple; grate one half on the largest holes of a box grater (use whole apple for 4). Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens; mince whites.

Cook Potatoes
2
  • Place potatoes in a medium pot with enough salted water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, 15-20 minutes.

  • Reserve ½ cup potato cooking liquid, then drain and return potatoes to pot. Keep covered off heat until ready to mash.

Make Glaze
3
  • While potatoes cook, in a small bowl, combine BBQ sauce, 1 tsp Brown Sugar Bourbon Seasoning (2 tsp for 4 servings), and a squeeze of lemon juice. (You’ll use the remaining Brown Sugar Bourbon Seasoning in the next step.) Taste and season with pepper and more lemon juice if desired.

Form & Bake Loaves
4
  • In a large bowl, combine pork*, grated apple, scallion whites, panko, remaining Brown Sugar Bourbon Seasoning, ½ tsp salt (1 tsp for 4 servings), and pepper. Form into two 1-inch-tall loaves (four loaves for 4).

  • Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly oil. Place meatloaves on one side of prepared sheet; top with half the glaze (you’ll use the rest in the next step). (For 4, spread meatloaves out across entire sheet; roast on middle rack.)

  • Roast on top rack for 10 minutes (they’ll finish cooking in the next step).

Glaze & Roast
5
  • Meanwhile, cut broccoli into bite-size pieces if necessary. Toss in a medium bowl with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper.

  • Once meatloaves have roasted 10 minutes, remove sheet from oven; carefully add broccoli to empty side. (For 4 servings, add broccoli to a second sheet; roast on top rack.)

  • Roast for 12 minutes, then remove from oven once more. Carefully brush meatloaves with remaining glaze. Return to oven until meatloaves are cooked through, glaze is tacky, and broccoli is tender, 4-5 minutes more.

Mash Potatoes
6
  • Meanwhile, mash potatoes with sour cream and 2 TBSP butter (4 TBSP for 4 servings) until smooth and creamy, adding splashes of reserved potato cooking liquid as needed. Season with salt and pepper.

Finish & Serve
7
  • Slice meatloaves crosswise.

  • Carefully toss broccoli with lemon zest.

  • Divide meatloaves, mashed potatoes, and broccoli between plates. Sprinkle with scallion greens and serve.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavor: The apple in the meatloaves was surprisingly delicious, adding unexpected sweetness. Some found the bourbon seasoning a bit strong.
  • Ease of prep: A few were initially hesitant about the multiple steps, but the result was worth it.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding a pinch of garlic to the meat mix and mashed potatoes for extra flavor.
  • Leftovers: The meatloaf keeps well and is tasty even after the initial meal.
  • Tweaks: Try adding a touch of maple syrup to the BBQ sauce if you prefer less smokiness 🍖.
