Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 1 medium, finely diced onion
  • 2 minced garlic cloves
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 0.5 cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.25 cup ketchup (for topping)
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar (for topping)
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, diced onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, 1/2 cup ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Mix the ingredients gently with clean hands or a spoon until just combined. Do not overmix as this can make the meatloaf dense.

Step 4

Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan and press it down evenly to form a loaf shape.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup ketchup, brown sugar, and yellow mustard to create the topping glaze.

Step 6

Spread the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.

Step 7

Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Step 8

Once cooked, allow the meatloaf to rest in the pan for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Step 9

Slice and serve warm with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes and green beans.
