Kids are notorious for not liking meatloaf (mine included), but growing up, I loved meatloaf, as long as it was my mom's.  In fact, I have never even tried any other meatloaf, nor no I ever plan to.  I stick with what I know is good!  What makes this meatloaf so good?  It's the delightful glaze on top.  It is sweet, sticky, and not at all ketchup-y, and it is nothing short of magnificent!  Like a good frosting on a cake- it's the best part!
Meatloaf
2 pounds ground beef
2 eggs
1 cup oats
1/2 cup ketchup
Glaze
1/2 cup ketchup
3 T. brown sugar.
In a large bowl, mix meat, eggs, oats and ketchup until well combined. Place in loaf pan. Mix glaze ingredients together and pour over meat, covering well. Bake 1 hour until done.
And I can't tell you how many times I typed oars instead of oats. THAT would be lovely...
This recipe makes a lot, more than what our family of four will eat. I usually divide it between two loaf pans and freeze one (without glaze) and cook the other.
Enjoy!
