temperature.
Place the ground beef and pork in an ungreased 13x9-inch baking pan. Add
the eggs, the cooked vegetable mixture and the bread crumbs, remove the bay
leaves. Mix by hand until thoroughly combined. In the center of the pan,
shape the mixture into a loaf that is about 1-1/2 inches high, 6 inches
wide and 12 inches long. Bake uncovered at 350° F for 25 minutes, then
raise heat to 400° F and continue cooking until done, about 35 minutes
longer.
Serve immediately as is or with Very Hot Cajun Sauce for Beef. This is best
using both ground pork and ground beef, as the pork gives more flavor
diversity. However, you can make it with ground beef only.
