Servings: 8 servings (about 1 cup)
Calories: 30kcal
Ingredients
- ¾ cup ketchup
- 1 ½ teaspoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 ½ teaspoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk well.
- Add the sauce to your meatloaf in an even layer over the top of the meatloaf mixture when it has about 15-20 minutes of cooking time remaining, then return to the oven.
- Cook the meatloaf for an additional 20 minutes, or until your meatloaf is completely cooked and the glaze has caramelized over the top.
Notes
- Don't add the meatloaf glaze until the meatloaf has about 15-20 minutes of cooking time left. This prevents the sauce from burning, but gives it just enough time to carmelize and soak into the meatloaf.
- Allow the meatloaf to rest for a few minutes before slicing into it. This gives it time to "set" and makes it less likely to fall apart.
- Store leftover sauce in an airtight container (like a mason jar) and use on chicken, burgers, or, my favorite, meatloaf sandwiches!
