Description

Ingredients

• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 4 large cloves garlic, chopped
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon thyme
• kosher salt
• freshly ground black pepper
• 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons stone ground (coarse) mustard
• ⅔ cup ketchup
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 cup dried bread crumbs
• 2 lbs ground chuck

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350F, with rack on middle position. Place large pan of water on lower rack underneath.
• In a large heavy saucepan, saute onion and garlic in olive oil until soft. Add a pinch of kosher salt, pinch of pepper, and the thyme. Saute 30 seconds more, and transfer to large bowl.
• Add 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, eggs, beef broth, and bread crumbs. Whisk by hand to combine ingredients. Add ground chuck and stir with wooden spoon until fully combined.
• Form beef mixture into a loaf (roughly 2x5x8) in a larger baking dish.
• In a bowl, combine brown sugar, coarse mustard, and ketchup. Pour half of this sauce over the meatloaf.
• Bake about 50 minutes. Brush on more sauce, reserving a little for serving, if desired. Bake 10 more minutes or until meatloaf is cooked through.
• Let meatloaf sit at room temp about 10 minutes before cutting into it. Serve, and drizzle with any leftover sauce.
