Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
Step 2: Prepare the Meatloaf Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, chopped green bell pepper, beaten eggs, milk, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Mix until all ingredients are well combined, being careful not to overmix, as this can make the meatloaf tough.
Step 3: Shape and Bake
Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan, pressing it down gently to form an even loaf.
Step 4: Make the Glaze
In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup, brown sugar, and yellow mustard until smooth.
Spread the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Step 5: Bake the Meatloaf
Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Allow the meatloaf to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
