Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.75 cup Ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Dried parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 cup Ketchup (for glaze)
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Mustard
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a loaf pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, chopped onion, garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, parsley, and paprika.
Using your hands or a spoon, mix the ingredients together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the meatloaf tough.
Shape the mixture into a loaf shape and place it on the prepared baking sheet, or transfer it to a loaf pan to shape it evenly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard for the glaze.
Spread half of the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Bake the meatloaf for 40 minutes in the preheated oven.
After 40 minutes, remove the meatloaf from the oven and spread the remaining glaze over the top. Return it to the oven and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Once cooked, remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables. Enjoy!
