Ingredients

For the Meatloaf

  • 2 lbs (900 g) lean ground beef (80/20 preferred)
  • 1 packet (1 oz / 28g) (28 g) Lipton Onion Soup Mix
  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 2/3 cup (160 ml) milk
  • 1 cup (100 g) plain dry breadcrumbs
  • 1 medium yellow onion finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/3 cup (80 ml) ketchup for meatloaf mixture
  • 1 tsp garlic powder

For the Glaze

  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) ketchup for topping
  • 2 tbsp (25 g) brown sugar light or dark
  • 2 tsp (10 ml) apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp (0.5 tsp) onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp (0.5 tsp) garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp (0.5 tsp) fresh ground black pepper

Equipment

  • 9x13 inch Baking Dish
  • Mixing bowl
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Aluminum foil or parchment paper

Instructions
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with foil or parchment paper and mist with cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Add milk, 1/3 cup ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce, and stir to combine.
  3. Add in the ground beef, Lipton onion soup mix, chopped onion, garlic powder, and breadcrumbs. Use your hands to gently combine until just mixed—do not overmix.
  4. Transfer the mixture to the pan and shape into a loaf about 2 inches thick. Smooth the top as needed.
  5. Bake (uncovered) for 40 minutes.
  6. While the meatloaf bakes, prepare the glaze: Mix together 1/2 cup ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire, onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper in a bowl until smooth and glossy.
  7. After 40 minutes, remove the meatloaf from the oven. Spread the glaze evenly over the top.
  8. Return to the oven and bake for another 15–20 minutes, or until the glaze is bubbly and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  9. Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing to keep it juicy and intact. Serve warm with your favorite sides.

Notes

If you’re missing an ingredient, this meatloaf is flexible. Swap out breadcrumbs for oats or crushed crackers, or add a chopped bell pepper or shredded carrot for a veggie boost. Ground turkey can stand in for beef—just add extra moisture. It stores beautifully in the fridge (up to 4 days) or in the freezer (up to 3 months).
