Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Ground beef
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 2 Eggs
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely diced
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1.5 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 cup Ketchup
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
- 0.5 teaspoons Dried thyme
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan lightly with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, buttermilk, eggs, breadcrumbs, diced onion, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, dried parsley, and dried thyme. Mix gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.
Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan, pressing it down gently to form an even loaf. Smooth the top with a spatula or clean hands.
In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup and brown sugar to create the glaze.
Spread the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf, covering it completely for a flavorful crust.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 60 minutes or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (71°C).
Once cooked, remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest in the pan for 10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Carefully remove the meatloaf from the pan and slice it into thick slices. Serve warm with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
