GRANDMA BARB'S MEATLOAF RECIPE (THE BEST MEATLOAF)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 F.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet.
• Add onions, peppers and celery and saute until tender.
• Add garlic and cook just until fragrant.
• Remove from heat and let cool. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, add breadcrumbs and just enough milk to moisten the crumbs.
• Add remaining ingredients, except for the beef.
• Mix these ingredients well.
• Add the beef. Use your hands to mix it in. Don't be alarmed if the mixture seems a bit too wet at first. Handle the beef as little and as gently as possible to prevent it from becoming tough when baked. Mix JUST until everything is combined.
• Optional: Fry a tiny piece of the mixture to check the taste and adjust the seasonings if desired.
• When all of the ingredients are well combined, spoon the mixture into a loaf pan and smooth to an even layer. Set aside.
• To make the glaze, combine all glaze ingredients and spread half on top of meatloaf.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes and then top with remaining glaze. ( you don't have to use all of the glaze. You can save some to use when serving the meatloaf of desired)
• Continue baking for another 30-35 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 160 F. or to your desired (safe) doneness. ( I like to flip the oven to broil for the last few minutes to get the glaze a bit sticky but watch it carefully if you decide to do this)
• Remove from oven, drain off the fat and let meatloaf rest before slicing. (If meatloaf is steaming hot when you cut into it, it will fall apart)
