This is the best meatloaf recipe ever and comes complete with a yummy glaze. It will knock your socks off! My mom never ever made meatloaf when I was growing up so when I moved out on my own, I started experimenting with different recipes and this is my best creation.

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon butter
• ¼ cup minced onion
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 ½ teaspoons salt
• 1 ½ teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
• 2 pounds extra-lean ground beef
• 3 slices bread, toasted and crumbled
• 7 buttery round crackers, crushed
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 3 ½ tablespoons sour cream
• 1 ½ tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce, divided
• ¼ cup milk, or as needed (Optional)
• 3 tablespoons ketchup

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat, and cook onion and garlic until onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and season with salt and pepper.
3. Combine onion and garlic mixture, beef, crumbled bread, crushed crackers, egg, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, and 1/2 can tomato sauce in a large bowl. Mix until well combined. Gradually stir in milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, until mixture is moist, but not soggy. Transfer the mixture to a 5×9 inch loaf pan.
4. Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), and continue baking 15 minutes, to an internal temperature of 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
5. Mix the remaining tomato sauce and ketchup in a small bowl. Pour over the top of the meatloaf, and continue baking for 10 minutes.
