Ingredients
- 1/2 cup brown sugar for the glaze
- 1/2 cup ketchup for the glaze
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef or meatloaf mix (equal parts ground beef, veal and pork)
- 2 eggs beaten
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup sweet onion chopped
- 3/4 cup bread crumbs
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 375°F.
- Press the brown sugar into the bottom of a 9x5-inch loaf pan, then spread the ketchup over the sugar.
- In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, eggs, milk, onion, bread crumbs, salt and pepper together.
- Press the meat mixture into the loaf pan on top of the ketchup.
- Bake for 1 hour, until a thermometer in the center of the loaf reads 160°F.
- Take the pan out of the oven, pour the juices off into a bowl and discard them. Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes.
- Turn the loaf out onto a platter or cutting board so the glaze is on top, then slice and serve.

Mix the meat gently, without overworking it. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours and eat within 3 to 4 days or freeze 3 to 4 months; reheat to 165°F.
