Meatloaf
- 2 lbs ground beef 80/20 for best flavor
- 1 oz onion soup mix 1 packet
- ¾ cup breadcrumbs plain or Italian-style
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup milk
- ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, onion soup mix, breadcrumbs, eggs, milk, black pepper, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, and ketchup. Mix gently until just combined.
- Transfer mixture to the loaf pan or shape into a loaf on the baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, whisk together ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard. Spread half of the glaze over the meatloaf.
- Bake for 45 minutes, then spread the remaining glaze on top. Continue baking for another 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
- Let the meatloaf rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with mashed potatoes and vegetables.
Notes
For best results, use 80/20 ground beef for a juicy meatloaf. Letting the meatloaf rest before slicing helps retain its juices.
