Ingredients

For the Meatloaf:

• 2 pounds ground beef (preferably 80/20 lean to fat ratio)

• 1 envelope Lipton Onion Soup Mix

• 1 cup plain breadcrumbs

• 2 large eggs

• ¾ cup whole milk

• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

• Optional: ½ teaspoon garlic powder

For the Glaze:

• ½ cup ketchup

• 2 tablespoons brown sugar

• 1 tablespoon white vinegar

• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (optional)

• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

• ½ teaspoon onion powder

• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it for easy cleanup.

2. Prepare the Meat Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, Lipton Onion Soup Mix, breadcrumbs, eggs, milk, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, and garlic powder (if using). Mix gently until just combined; avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.

3. Shape the Meatloaf: Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan, pressing it down evenly to ensure uniform cooking.

4. Make the Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup, brown sugar, white vinegar, Worcestershire sauce (if using), garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until smooth.

5. Apply the Glaze: Spread the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.

6. Bake: Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

7. Rest Before Serving: Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a moist and flavorful meatloaf.
