Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ lbs ground beef
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup milk
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire-style sauce
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tsp fresh thyme or ½ tsp dried
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
For the Glaze:
- ½ cup ketchup
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet or lightly grease a loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, eggs, milk, Worcestershire-style sauce, parsley, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
- Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it on the prepared baking sheet or in the loaf pan.
- In a small bowl, mix ketchup, Dijon mustard, and brown sugar until smooth.
- Spread half of the glaze evenly over the meatloaf.
- Bake for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and spread remaining glaze on top.
- Return to oven and bake for another 25–30 minutes, or until cooked through.
- Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing to set the juices.
- For a leaner version, use 90% lean ground beef and adjust salt to taste.
- If you like a spicier glaze, add a dash of hot sauce to the glaze mixture.
- Uncooked loaf can be refrigerated for up to 2 days before baking.
