Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Ground beef (80% lean)
• 1 large Eggs
• 1 cup Onion, finely chopped
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 2 tablespoons Ketchup
• 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Prepared mustard
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
• 0.5 cup Ketchup (for glaze)
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar (for glaze)
• 1 teaspoon Prepared mustard (for glaze)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a rectangular loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, egg, finely chopped onion, breadcrumbs, milk, ketchup, brown sugar, prepared mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly with clean hands or a wooden spoon until everything is evenly incorporated, but try not to overmix.

Step 3

Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan and press it down gently to create an even surface.

Step 4

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the tomato sauce, ketchup (for glaze), brown sugar (for glaze), and prepared mustard (for glaze) to create the meatloaf glaze.

Step 5

Spread half of the glaze evenly over the top of the uncooked meatloaf. Reserve the remaining glaze for later use.

Step 6

Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for 60 minutes.

Step 7

After 60 minutes, remove the meatloaf from the oven and spread the remaining glaze evenly over the top.

Step 8

Return the meatloaf to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Step 9

Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 10

Slice the meatloaf and serve warm with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables.
