Ingredients

• 2 pounds ground beef
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 cup milk
• 0.5 cup ketchup
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 0.25 cup ketchup (for glaze)
• 2 teaspoons mustard
• 1 teaspoon white vinegar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a standard loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, milk, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, beaten eggs, salt, black pepper, dried thyme, and paprika. Mix gently with your hands until all ingredients are evenly combined, being careful not to overwork the mixture.

Step 3

Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan and evenly shape it into a loaf. Smooth the top to prevent cracks during baking.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, ketchup, mustard, and vinegar to make the glaze.

Step 5

Spread about half of the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.

Step 6

Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove it from the oven and spread the remaining glaze on top.

Step 7

Return the meatloaf to the oven and continue cooking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) when measured with a meat thermometer.

Step 8

Remove the meatloaf from the oven and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 9

Serve hot with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables. Enjoy!
