I Finally Made Meatloaf… and Baby, This One’s a Keeper 🤤🍽️

I used to think meatloaf was just… meatloaf.

But making it from scratch with ground beef + mild Italian sausage? Yeah… I get the hype now. 😮‍💨

The Italian sausage added so much flavor that I didn’t even miss the Worcestershire sauce!

Here’s what I used:

🥩 1 lb ground beef

🌭 1 lb mild Italian sausage

🥖 1 cup Italian-style breadcrumbs

🥚 2 eggs

🥛 ½ cup milk

🧄 1 tbsp minced garlic

✨ 1 tsp garlic powder

✨ 1 tsp onion powder

✨ 1 tsp paprika

🌿 1 tsp Italian seasoning

🧂 1 tsp seasoned salt

⚫ ½ tsp black pepper

🍅 ½ cup ketchup

For the glaze:

❤️ ½ cup ketchup

🤎 2 tbsp brown sugar

💛 1 tsp yellow mustard

Bake at 350°F for 45 minutes, add the glaze, then bake another 20–25 minutes. Let it rest for about 10–15 minutes before slicing.

Y’all… it came out juicy, flavorful, and had everybody going back for seconds. 🙌🏽

Now I need to know…

Do you put ketchup on top of your meatloaf, or are you a brown gravy family? 👀

I would say brown gravy, put cheddar cheese in the middle of the meatloaf before baking it
