Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, grated onion, grated garlic, spices, milk, olive oil, salt and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
3. Cut the tops off the peppers and carefully remove the seeds, keeping each pepper intact. Poke a small hole in the tip of each pepper with a skewer to help prevent splitting.
4. Loosely fill each pepper about 80% full with the meat mixture, leaving room for the rice to expand. Shape any leftover meat into a meatloaf in a loaf pan, top it with one-third of the sauce, and bake for 45 to 60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
5. Spread the stuffed peppers in a 9x13 baking dish and spoon enough sauce over them to just cover them.
6. Bake uncovered for 60 to 90 minutes, checking the peppers at the 1-hour mark. Remove them from the oven once a paring knife slides easily into them.
