Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 pound ground pork
  • 1 cup Ritz crackers, crushed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/3 cup yellow onion, diced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper or foil and place on a rimmed baking sheet.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl combine all meatloaf ingredients together. Knead together with your hands to mix until just combined.

  3. 3

    Press the meat mixture into the prepared pan and use a rubber spatula to press it in evenly.

  4. 4

    Bake uncovered for 45 minutes.

  5. 5

    As you approach the 45 minute mark, mix together glaze ingredients in a small bowl.

  6. 6

    Remove the meatloaf from the oven and carefully drain any grease if necessary. (A turkey baster is good for this.)

  7. 7

    Spoon half the glaze over the meatloaf, being sure not to touch the spoon to the half-cooked meatloaf so you don’t cross-contaminate the glaze.

  8. 8

    Return the meatloaf to the oven and bake for an additional 45 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees Fahrenheit.

  9. 9

    Let meatloaf sit 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve with remaining glaze for dipping.
