Ingredients
Scale
- ⅓ cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- black pepper (to taste)
- ¾ cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons dried minced onion
- 2 pounds ground beef (or a mix of ground beef and ground pork)
- ⅓ cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon yellow mustard
Instructions
- Prepare a foil sling by lining a 5-6 quart slow cooker with heavy duty aluminum foil and spraying it with cooking spray.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, sea salt, dried parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Add panko breadcrumbs and dried minced onion, letting it soak for 5 minutes.
- Add ground beef to the mixture and combine gently without overmixing.
- Shape the mixture into a large oval loaf and set it on the foil sling in the cooker.
- For the glaze, combine ketchup and brown sugar in a small bowl, reserving half in the fridge. Spread the remaining glaze over the meatloaf.
- Cover the cooker and cook on HIGH for 2.5-3 hours or on LOW for 5-6 hours until the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
- Top the cooked meatloaf with the reserved glaze, scraping off any undesired spots if needed.
- Allow the meatloaf to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Notes
Ensure not to overmix the meat to keep the meatloaf tender.
Add a mix of ground beef and pork for a richer flavor.
Use a good quality ketchup for the best glaze taste.
