Ingredients

Meatloaf Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 medium onion finely chopped
2 cloves garlic minced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
1 large egg beaten

Brown Gravy Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups beef broth
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground

Instructions

1 Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2 In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, salt, black pepper, and beaten egg.
3 Mix the ingredients thoroughly with your hands until well combined.
4 Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it in a lightly greased loaf pan.
5 Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes or until the meatloaf is cooked through.
6 While the meatloaf is baking, prepare the brown gravy. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
7 Stir in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until the mixture becomes a light golden color.
8 Gradually whisk in beef broth, soy sauce, and black pepper, ensuring there are no lumps.
9 Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until the gravy thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
10 Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
11 Serve slices of meatloaf topped with the brown gravy.
