Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a standard muffin tin to prevent the meatloaves from sticking.
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and milk. Let the mixture sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the breadcrumbs to absorb the milk.
In a large mixing bowl, add the ground beef, ground pork, soaked breadcrumbs, egg, diced onion, minced garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Using clean hands or a spoon, mix everything until well combined, but avoid overmixing as it can make the meatloaf dense.
Divide the meat mixture evenly into 12 portions and press each portion into the wells of the prepared muffin tin, forming small domes.
In a small bowl, mix the additional ketchup with the brown sugar. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the mixture onto the top of each mini meatloaf and spread evenly with the back of the spoon.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaves reaches 160°F (71°C) using a meat thermometer.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the mini meatloaves rest for 5 minutes before carefully removing them from the tin using a spoon or spatula.
Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes, or allow them to cool and store in an airtight container for meal prep.
