Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs ground beef or a mix of beef and pork
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

- For the glaze:
- 1/4 cup honey or brown sugar

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine ground meat, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
- Transfer the meat mixture into a loaf pan or shape it into a loaf on a baking sheet. Bake for about 45 minutes until browned and cooked through.

- After 30 minutes of baking, remove the meatloaf from the oven and brush generously with the glaze.
- Return to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes to caramelize the glaze.
- Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with your favorite sides.
