Recipe Introduction
Makes 8 servings
When packing the meat into the pan, use a second pan to fully press the meat down. The harder it is packed, the better the meatloaf will retain its shape.

Recipe
To make the barbecue sauce: Combine all ingredients. Simmer 30 minutes. Cool. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
To make the meatloaf:
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
Saute the mushrooms in olive oil until tender. Transfer to a bowl.
Add onion to the skillet. Cook until golden brown. Transfer to a bowl.
In a large mixer, combine beef, veal, pork, eggs, bread crumbs, herbs, parsley, garlic and cream. Mix well. Add mushrooms, onions, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper.
Pack mixture into 6-by-9-by-4-inch loaf pan. Cover with foil. Place loaf pan in a larger pan at least 6 inches deep. Add enough water to come halfway up the sides of the loaf pan. Cover with foil.
Bake 90 minutes. Spread 1/4 cup barbecue sauce over meatloaf (save remaining sauce for another use). Bake, uncovered, 30 minutes longer.
