This classic picnic meatloaf is a substantial, high-protein dish that makes a fantastic centrepiece for a British summer spread. By combining seasoned pork and chicken mince with grated apple for moisture and savoury chicken sausages for extra texture, this loaf offers a sophisticated depth of flavour. The traditional addition of hard-boiled eggs tucked into the centre creates a beautiful visual effect when the loaf is sliced and served at a garden gathering or a local park picnic.
Preparing this dish a day in advance is essential, as the overnight chilling allows the flavours to develop and the texture to firm up for effortless slicing. It is a brilliant alternative to standard deli meats and tastes wonderful served alongside a sharp fruit chutney, pickled onions, and a crisp green salad.

Ingredients for Picnic Meat Loaf
900g pork mince
230g chicken mince
170g cooked chicken sausages (about 2 medium links, casings removed), chopped
1 tart apple (such as Granny Smith), peeled and grated
80ml diced onion
80ml bread crumbs
160ml cream (or evaporated milk — any fat content is fine)
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 egg, plus 3 hard-boiled eggs
How to make Picnic Meat Loaf
Preheat oven to 177°C. Spray a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients but the hard-boiled eggs.
Press half the mixture into the pan, then gently press in the hard-boiled eggs, end to end. Mold the remaining mixture on top.
Cover with foil and bake until the juices run clear when you poke the loaf with a sharp knife, 1 1/2 hours.
Remove from oven and let cool for 30 minutes. Take the loaf from the pan, let it cool completely, then wrap it well and chill overnight.
