Moist, flavorful, and loaded with herbs, this classic meatloaf is topped with a sweet-savory ketchup and BBQ glaze. It’s easy to prep, great for leftovers, and sure to be a dinner table favorite.


Ingredients

Scale

4 lbs ground beef

2 cups breadcrumbs

⅔ cup milk

4 eggs

2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

2 medium onions, finely chopped

2 tablespoons garlic, minced

½ cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

4 tablespoons ketchup

2 teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

For the Glaze:

4 tablespoons ketchup

4 tablespoons BBQ sauce

Optional:

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet or loaf pans with parchment or foil.

In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, seasoning, onions, garlic, parsley, Worcestershire, ketchup, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined—don’t overwork it.

Shape into two loaves and place on the prepared sheet or in loaf pans.

In a small bowl, mix glaze ingredients and spread evenly over the loaves.

Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with parsley if desired.
