Brown Sugar Meatloaf

Tonight's Sunday Supper

This is a perfect Southern main dish for a hearty Sunday Supper.    Served with mash potatoes and some french green beans and that makes a great Sunday Supper for all.

Now that the weather is turning a little cooler for this wonderful fall Season, it is time to bring on the hearty meals.

My husband loves meatloaf.   I like this particular recipe because of the brown sugar glaze.   

​Moist and delicious meatloaf with a yummy brown sugar glaze.

INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 pounds ground beef chuck
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup milk
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 package of dry onion soup mix
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
3/4 cup Italian bread crumbs


TO MAKE:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F ---Line a casserole dish with foil.
In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, ketchup and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce. Divide evenly among three separate bowls; set aside.
In a large bowl combine garlic, Worcestershire sauce, milk, eggs, salt, pepper, soup mix, ginger, bread crumbs and one bowl (1/3) of prepared brown sugar/ketchup mixture. Add ground beef and mix to thoroughly combine.
Shape into a loaf and spoon one bowl (1/3) of prepared brown sugar/ketchup mixture onto the top of the loaf.
Place the meat loaf, brown sugar/ketchup side down, into prepared casserole dish. Top with remaining bowl (1/3) of prepared brown sugar/ketchup mixture.
Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour, until juices are clear.   I do the fork test and make sure it is cooked through in the middle.

Let stand 5-10 minutes before slicing.
