When the kids were growing up we did some dollar stretching with substitution. Sometimes it was 1/3 ground venison with 2/3 ground beef for sloppy joes.

Since venison is generally a drier meat the wife still occasionally fixes a meatloaf with 1/3 ground pork and 2/3 ground beef. Sometimes it even today to save a buck it goes to 1/2 & 1/2.

Spaghetti sauce also works with any combination of the 3 meats.
