Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, diced onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined.
Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan and press it evenly to shape the meatloaf.
In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard to create the glaze.
Spread the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (71°C).
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm, garnished with additional cheddar cheese on top if desired, alongside your favorite side dishes like mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
