Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, milk, egg, finely chopped onion, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Use clean hands to mix everything together until well combined, but avoid overmixing.
Transfer the mixture into a lightly greased loaf pan (9x5 inch) or shape it into a loaf on a foil-lined baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup ketchup, brown sugar, and yellow mustard. Spread this mixture evenly over the top of the meatloaf for a flavorful glaze.
Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for 55–60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C).
Once cooked, remove the meatloaf from the oven and allow it to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve with mashed potatoes, green beans, or a side of your choice, and enjoy!
