Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef (80% lean)
- 1 cup plain breadcrumbs
- 2 large eggs
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, onion, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.
- Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it on a lined baking sheet or in a loaf pan.
- Prepare the glaze by whisking together ketchup, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl. Brush half of the glaze over the meatloaf.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C). Halfway through baking, apply the remaining glaze.
- Let it rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing to retain moisture. Serve warm with any extra glaze drizzled on top.
