I can't judge without tasting.
Send me about 8 pounds and I will get back to you.

Use a bit more of the aromatic veggies of the trinity in it. That will give more flavor to it and produce more liquid into the final product. Saute the veggies, let them cool and run them through the mill with the meat.

In your 50% meat, make that 25% Grd Beef with a higher fat content and use a fattier pork as you other 25%. Veggies as recommended above also good idea-I like to mince mine in food pross to get juices as well as flavor plus pieces aren't so big when you eat the final product.

presumably you are slow simmering the meat in a pot of water, where you add seasonings and aromatics, to get it ready for grinding. if so, reserve some of that liquid. after you mix the chopped/ground meat, vegetables, and rice together in the bowl, add some of this liquid into the mixture until you reach the desired level of moisture. keep track of how much liquid you add, and you can adjust in future batches until you get it to where you want.
i could drink a bowl full of that liquid when i'm done cooking down the meat for grinding. stuff is delicious.

Add more of the stock that you cooked your meat and seasonings in, to the meat rice mixture at the last minute. There's a fine line, and will probably take a few tries, but if you track your portions, you'll get the recipe to where you like it.
