1 cup breadcrumbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n
1 onion, finely chopped<\/li>\n\n\n\n
2 cloves garlic, minced<\/li>\n\n\n\n
2 large eggs<\/li>\n\n\n\n
\u00bd cup milk<\/li>\n\n\n\n
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce<\/li>\n\n\n\n
1 tsp salt<\/li>\n\n\n\n
\u00bd tsp black pepper<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

Step-by-Step Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Step 1: Make Meatloaf Mixture<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
In a large bowl, mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, eggs, milk, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper until just combined (don’t overmix).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 2: Shape & Wrap<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Shape meat mixture into a loaf (about 9×5 inches). Place on a foil-lined baking sheet. Wrap bacon slices around the loaf, tucking ends underneath.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 3: Make Glaze<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
In a small bowl, mix ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, and mustard.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 4: Bake<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Preheat oven to 375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C). Bake meatloaf 45 minutes. Brush with glaze. Bake 15-20 more minutes until internal temp reaches 160\u00b0F (71\u00b0C).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 5: Rest & Serve<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Rest 10 minutes. Slice and serve. Juicy, smoky, glazed to perfection.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Fridge:<\/strong> 5 days. Reheat in oven at 350\u00b0F for 10-15 minutes or microwave. Freezer (sliced):<\/strong> 3 months. Great for leftovers on sandwiches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
