Crazy Good Meatloaf (Finally) ! - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb ground beef
    1 lb ground pork
    2 eggs
    1/2 - 3/4 cup breadcrumbs (mine were homemade, but not too coarse)
    3/4 cup shredded cabbage
    1/2 cup grated carrot
    1 teaspoon fresh ground horseradish
    1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh garlic (1-2 cloves)
    1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
    1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
    1/2 teaspoon grill seasoning
    1/4 teaspoon blackening seasoning
    1/4 teaspoon sweet basil (measurement is for dried)
    1 pinch caribbean rub seasoning (not jerk)
    For Glaze
    2/3 cup ketchup
    1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
    1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (really should be balsamic)
Preparation
    For Loaf:
    Mix all ingredients by hand until everything is well incorporated.
    Put in large loaf pan (or 2 smaller loaf pans) leaving 1/2-1\" gap on one end for grease to drain to.
    OR for muffins, form meat mixture packed & rounded into each muffin space (makes approximately 10 regular sized muffins, usually 2 per person). Do place over a cookie sheet so that you don't have grease drip onto your oven.
    Generously brush on glaze to top(s).
    For loaf: Bake at 350 approx 1 hours.
    For \"Muffins\": Bake at 350 for approx 30-40 minutes.
    Or until meat tests done in center at 160-170 degrees.
    Serve with a side of the glaze, & use any leftover glaze with leftovers.
