Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef (80% lean)
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 cup ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Using your hands or a spatula, gently mix the ingredients together until fully combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the meatloaf dense.
Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it in the center of the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup ketchup and 2 tablespoons of brown sugar to make the glaze.
Spread the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 55–60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Once done, remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm and enjoy your Delicious Meatloaf with mashed potatoes, green beans, or your favorite side dishes.
