Cook Time: 1 1/2 hours
Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients Add to grocery list

1 1/2 lb lean ground beef
1/2 lb ground pork

3/4 C Applesauce

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, onion, egg, applesauce, bread crumbs, 3 T of Paula Deen Smokey Apple Cinnamon Sauce, salt and pepper. Mix well.

I loved this recipe. I didn't have the sauce so I used Kraft Original BBQ sauce and mixed in cinnamon in the meat. Everyone loved it. Will definately make again.

Hey Joyce! I found the sauce at Winn Dixie. I don't know if you have a Winn Dixie but check there. If you don't have a Winn Dixie, try your local grocery store. The first time i tried the meatloaf, I ordered the sauce online it but I recently bought the sauce from my grocery store. Good luck!

I made this last night and it was my first Paula recipe. Let me tell you this was the best meatloaf I have had. I will admit I didn't have her applesauce so I just added some liquid smoke and Worcestershire to some cinnamon applesauce and it came out terrific. I see this being a frequent thing I make.

This is the most delicious meatloaf in the world! Well worth the shipping cost to have the sauce mailed to you! This is the only way we will fix meatloaf in our home. After tasting this, nothing will ever be as good to us. This is a definite keeper, a 10+++++! Even our boys love it - which is really saying something! They are very picky eaters! This is savory cooking at its best! It has such a wonderful, smoky, comforting taste - perfect any time of year! Thank you, Paula, for sharing such a wonderful recipe with us and for making this Smoky Apple Cinnamon Sauce available for us to purchase. We'll be buying it every month - guaranteed!

Since I couldn't make meatloaf like Mom's I searched for years for a good recipe AND THIS IS A KEEPER. I have made it several times and have had many compliments on it since I saw Ms. Deen make it on TV. I order her Smokey Apple Cinnamon Sauce on line-plus an extra one to have on hand. The sauce just makes it perfect. Thank you so much, my 30 year search is over!
