Description
Classic Glazed Meatloaf
Ingredients
For the Meatloaf:
2 lbs ground beef (80/20 for best flavor)
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup milk
2 large eggs
1/2 cup onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
For the Glaze:
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Directions
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet or loaf pan with parchment paper.
Mix the Meatloaf: In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, onion, garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined—don’t overmix!
Shape the Loaf: Place the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan or shape it into a loaf on a lined baking sheet.
Make the Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together ketchup, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce. Spread half of the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Bake: Bake the meatloaf for 40-45 minutes. Remove from the oven, spread the remaining glaze on top, and bake for another 15 minutes, or until fully cooked (internal temp of 160°F/71°C).
Rest and Serve: Let the meatloaf rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve with mashed potatoes or your favorite sides!
