Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup ketchup (for the loaf)
  • 1/4 cup bourbon
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, egg, milk, onion, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Do not overmix.
  3. Press the meat mixture evenly into the prepared loaf pan. Spread the ketchup over the top of the loaf.
  4. In a small saucepan, whisk together the bourbon, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  5. Pour half of the bourbon glaze evenly over the meatloaf.
  6. Bake for 45 minutes.
  7. Remove the meatloaf from the oven and brush with the remaining glaze.
  8. Return the meatloaf to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F.
  9. Let the meatloaf rest in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Sasha suggests adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to the meat mixture for a little kick.
  • For a richer glaze, you can simmer it for a few extra minutes until it coats the back of a spoon.
  • You can substitute ground turkey or a mix of ground beef and pork for the ground beef.
