Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp dry mustard powder

Method
 

  1. Whisk the ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire, and mustard together in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves and the sauce is smooth, about 1 minute.
  2. Spoon the sauce over a 2-pound meatloaf, spread it evenly, and bake the meatloaf according to your recipe, adding the sauce during the last 15 to 20 minutes of cooking until bubbly and dark around the edges. Serve hot.

Notes

This amount is just right for one 2-pound meatloaf. Double the ingredients if you want extra sauce to pass at the table. The glaze will thicken and caramelize in the oven; watch it closely in the final minutes so the sugar does not scorch.
