Ingredients
Meatloaf
2lbsground beefI prefer to use grass fed beef whenever possible
1cupquick oats
1 ¼cupsmilk
1eggbeaten
¼cupminced onion
1teaspoonWorcestershire
½teaspoonkosher salt
¼teaspoonfresh black pepper
¼teaspoonsage
¼teaspooncelery salt
¼teaspoonground mustard
¼teaspoongranulated garlic
Glaze
¼cupketchup or tomato sauceI like this homemade ketchup best of all
1tablespoonbalsamic vinegar
1tablespoonbrown sugar
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine all meatloaf ingredients in a bowl and then mix together with your hands - yes, it really is easier that way. Shape into a loaf form* and then place on a foil lined baking sheet.
Stir together the glaze ingredients and spoon over the top of the meatloaf prior to baking.
Bake in a preheated oven until the internal temperature reaches 170 degrees. I recommend using a thermometer to determine the cooking time initially. How long it needs to cook will be affected by the shape of the meatloaf. Approximately 45 minutes.
Notes
* I like to shape mine relatively flat and oblong and it usually cooks in about 65-70 minutes. A more traditional 4x4x8 loaf will take about 90 minutes.
