  • Shape the meat mixture into a loaf approximately 2 inches thick. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet.
  • Put the meatloaf in the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
  • While the meatloaf cooks make the sauce. In a small bowl whisk together the ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce to make the meatloaf glaze.
  • After cooking for 30 minutes remove the meatloaf from the oven and spread the sauce over the meatloaf. Return it to the oven and resume cooking for the remaining 15 minutes.
