Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350ðF (175ðC).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, chopped onion, pepper, beaten egg, melted butter, tomato soup, bread crumbs, and flour. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix.
  3. Shape the meat mixture into a loaf and place it in a shallow baking dish or on a wire rack set inside a baking sheet.
  4. Bake the meatloaf uncovered for 1 hour.
  5. While the meatloaf bakes, mix the ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard in a small bowl to create the glaze.
  6. After 1 hour of baking, remove the meatloaf from the oven and spread the ketchup mixture evenly over the top.
  7. Return the meatloaf to the oven and bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until the glaze is sticky and caramelized and the internal temperature reaches 160ðF.
  8. Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
