2. Mixing the Meatloaf: In a very large bowl, combine the eggs, V8 juice, chopped onions, bread crumbs, dry onion soup mix, pepper, and chopped parsley. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.

3. Adding the Beef: Crumble the ground beef over the mixture in the bowl. Use your hands or a sturdy spoon to thoroughly mix everything together until the beef is evenly distributed with the other ingredients.

4. Forming the Loaves: Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a loaf shape. Place each loaf into a greased 13×9-inch baking dish.

5. Baking the Meatloaves: Bake the loaves uncovered in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.

6. Preparing the Glaze: While the meatloaves are baking, in a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, and prepared mustard until smooth and well combined.

7. Glazing the Meatloaves: After 45 minutes of baking, remove the meatloaves from the oven and spread the ketchup mixture evenly over the tops of each loaf.

8. Finishing the Bake: Return the meatloaves to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center reads 160°F (70°C) to ensure they are fully cooked through.

9. Serving: Once baked, let the meatloaves rest for a few minutes before slicing. This recipe yields 4 meatloaves, each serving about 8 hearty portions.
