Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cups yellow onion diced
  • 3 lbs ground beef (I used 80/20)
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 3 large eggs beaten
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon salt + more to taste
  • 1 tablespoon black pepper or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 
  • 3 tablespoons parsley fresh, chopped

for the glaze-

  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups ketchup

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Line half sheet pan with heavy-duty foil, spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, over medium heat, saute onions in olive oil until tender and browned, about 10 minutes. Pour into a large bowl.
  3. To the onions, add in ground beef, bread crumbs, eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, 1 cup ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and parsley. Mix well just until completely combined. Do not over mix.
  4. Form into a long log on the prepared baking sheet and flatten the top.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk brown sugar with remaining 1 1/2 cups ketchup to form glaze.
  6. Spread glaze overtop prepared meatloaf and bake covered with foil* 45 minutes to 1 hour or until cooked thoroughly and registers at least 160° F.
  7. Rest meatloaf covered lightly with foil for 10-15 minutes before cutting. Top with more chopped parsley, if desired, and serve.

Notes

  • *If you want to caramelize the glaze, remove foil in the last 10-15 minutes of cooking. 
  • Leftovers. Cover leftovers with plastic wrap and store in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • Freezing. After baking, let your meatloaf cool to room temperature. Cover in foil, then seal it in a plastic freezer bag.
  • Reheat. Let thaw for 24 hours in your fridge before baking. Then bake at 350° F until the internal temperature reaches 160° F.
