Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 cup stuffing mix
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Glaze

  • 1/4 cup ketchup

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, stuffing mix, beaten eggs, chopped onion, milk, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently but thoroughly with your hands or a spoon until all ingredients are well incorporated.
  2. Shape the Meatloaf: Transfer the mixture onto a baking pan or loaf pan and form it into a neat loaf shape, about 8×4 inches. Press gently to ensure it holds together without compacting it too tightly to keep the texture tender.
  3. Add Topping: Spread a layer of ketchup over the top of the meatloaf using the back of a spoon, creating a beautiful glaze that caramelizes during baking for a sweet and tangy crust.
  4. Bake Until Done: Place the meatloaf in the oven and bake for 55 to 70 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) for safe consumption. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing to lock in juices and ease slicing.

Notes

  • Don’t overmix the ingredients to avoid a dense, tough texture.
  • Rest the meatloaf before slicing to retain juiciness.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure perfect cooking without drying out.
  • Customize your glaze by mixing ketchup with brown sugar or mustard.
  • Bake the meatloaf on a rack in your pan to drain excess grease for a lighter meal.
