Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 2 lbs. ground beef
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons BBQ sauce
  • fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for serving)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine beef, bread crumbs, milk, eggs, Italian seasoning, onion, garlic, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, salt and pepper. Mix well until the mixture forms into a uniform consistency.
  • Transfer the beef mixture into a lightly oiled 9x5-inch loaf pan (1 lb. loaf pan), and invert it upside down onto a quarter sheet baking pan or 9x13-inch casserole pan to transfer the meatloaf over. 
  • Bake for 1 hour until the internal temperature reaches 160F, as read on a meat thermometer.
  • In a small bowl, whisk to combine ketchup and BBQ sauce. Spread the sauce evenly over the meatloaf. Then, return the meatloaf back into oven and bake for additional 10 to 15 minutes to create a beautiful caramelized glaze.
  • Garnish with parsley and serve immediately with a side of mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables. Drizzle any extra pan juices on top for extra flavour.
