Ingredients:
4 slices of fresh bread food processed
4 garlic cloves, minced
⅓ c beef broth I used Better Than Bouillon Beef Base
A pinch of ground thyme
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 ½ tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 pounds of ground beef, preferably not lean ground beef
pepper for taste
2 c red onion, diced
salt for taste
2 pinches of dry parsley
Brown Sugar Glaze:
4 tbsp light brown sugar about 4-5 tbsp
2 teaspoons pepper
½ c ketchup
Directions:
Prepare the oven and preheat it to 175 degrees C or 350 degrees F.
Line the bottom of a baking sheet with foil. Make sure to cover the sides as well.
Add water to fill another baking sheet, then place it below the rack of the preheating oven.
Place a skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium. Add vegetable oil and allow it to become hot.
Add the onions into the hot skillet, then sauté for a few minutes until translucent. Add garlic and sauté for about a minute or until aromatic. Move the sauteed veggies onto a plate.
Add the eggs, fresh breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, and beef broth into a mixing bowl. Mix everything until well incorporated.
In another mixing bowl, add brown sugar. ketchup, and pepper. Stir until everything until well blended.
In a large mixing bowl, add breadcrumb mixture, garlic, ground beef, onions, seasonings, salt, and pepper. Stir everything until well combined. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet. Shape the meat mixture into a meatloaf.
Pour about half of the ketchup mixture on top of the meatloaf and spread it evenly.
Place it in the preheated oven and bake the meatloaf for 45 minutes. Remove from the oven.
Add the rest of the ketchup mixture on top of the meatloaf and spread it evenly.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes:
I suggest serving this meatloaf with mashed potatoes or steamed veggies.
Place any leftovers in an airtight container, then put them in the fridge. They can last up to 3 to 4 days. Reheat for a few minutes before serving again.
