A delicious and hearty meatloaf recipe perfect for family dinners.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and Worcestershire sauce.
Whisking these ingredients well ensures they are evenly distributed.
Add the breadcrumbs, onion, parsley, salt, pepper, sage, chili powder, and garlic powder to the bowl and mix until combined.
Mix gently to avoid compacting the mixture.
Incorporate the ground beef into the mixture using your hands until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.
Transfer the mixture into a greased loaf pan, pressing it down gently to shape.
Greasing the pan prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
Check for doneness with a meat thermometer; it should read 160°F (71°C).
While the meatloaf bakes, mix the ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard in a small bowl to prepare the glaze.
Adjust the sweetness of the glaze by varying the sugar amount.
Spread the glaze evenly over the meatloaf and return it to the oven for an additional 10 minutes.
Use a spatula for an even glaze application.
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, making the meatloaf moist.
