Description

A classic meatloaf recipe made with a flavorful blend of ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, and seasonings, topped with a sweet glaze. Perfect for a comforting family dinner.


Ingredients

Units Scale

Meatloaf

  • 2 pounds 80%-90% ground beef or ground turkey, or 1 pound ground pork and 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/3 cup beef broth or milk
  • 2 large eggs, whisked
  • 2-3 Tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons Kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Glaze

  • 2/3 cup ketchup or BBQ sauce, or a mix of both
  • 2-3 Tablespoons light brown sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F and prepare a baking sheet or loaf pan with foil and non-stick spray.
  2. Mix the meatloaf: In a bowl, combine the meat, breadcrumbs, broth, eggs, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until just combined.
  3. Shape the meatloaf: Press the mixture into a loaf pan or form it into a loaf shape on the prepared pan.
  4. Prepare the glaze: Mix ketchup or BBQ sauce with brown sugar and pour over the meatloaf. Add pepper on top if desired.
  5. Bake: Bake for 45 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°F. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

  • You can use fresh onion and garlic instead of powders; sauté them before adding to the meat.
  • For a spicy kick, add red pepper flakes or chili sauce to the meatloaf.
  • This recipe can be prepped ahead and frozen for later use.
  • Leftover meatloaf can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days.
