Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef (80/20)
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cups milk
- 2 large eggs
- 0.25 cups ketchup
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika (optional)
- 0.5 cups ketchup (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar (for topping)
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, dried parsley, and paprika (if using).
Using clean hands or a spoon, mix the ingredients just until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.
Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan and shape it evenly into a compact loaf.
In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar to make the topping glaze.
Pour the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf, spreading it out with a spoon or brush.
Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 60–75 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) when checked with a meat thermometer.
Once done, remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Carefully remove the meatloaf from the pan, slice, and serve while warm. Enjoy Lisa’s hearty and flavorful meatloaf with your favorite sides!
