Ingredients
900 g lean ground beef
225 g tomato sauce
60 g crushed saltine crackers
60 ml finely chopped onion
2 eggs, beaten
30 g finely chopped green bell pepper
1 tsp salt
0.25 tsp ground thyme
0.25 tsp ground marjoram
60 ml ketchup
30 ml light corn syrup
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F).
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, tomato sauce, cracker crumbs, onion, eggs, bell pepper, salt, thyme, and marjoram. Mix until well combined. Shape the mixture into two loaves and place them in a 23x33 cm (9x13-inch) baking dish.
Step 3
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 1 hour.
Step 4
While the meatloaves are baking, prepare the glaze by mixing ketchup and corn syrup in a small bowl.
Step 5
After 1 hour, remove the foil from the baking dish. Brush the glaze onto both loaves. Return the baking dish to the oven and bake, uncovered, until the loaves are no longer pink in the center, for 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 70°C (160°F).
