Recipe notes:
General: Check out my full meatloaf recipe! General: Many meatloaf glaze recipes call for a splash of Worcestershire sauce, add a little if desired! You can also add some garlic powder or onion powder. I just feel this glaze is plenty flavorful with only 3 ingredients. Ketchup: Use whatever you have on hand! I really like Heinz brand for this glaze and feel it has the best flavor overall.Instructions
- Add ketchup, brown sugar and apple cider vinegar to a bowl.⅔ cup ketchup, 3 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- Whisk until well combined and sugars are melted.
- Bake meatloaf for 45 minutes at 350°F, without glaze. Then add glaze and bake about 20 minutes longer. I like to spoon about 80% of my sauce on top of the loaf, then lightly brush the sides with the rest.
- Pull meatloaf out of the oven when it reaches an internal temperature of 155℉ and let it rest on the baking sheet for 10 minutes until it reaches 160℉. Slice and serve!
