Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground hamburger, milk, egg, finely chopped onion, salt, pepper, dry mustard, and Worcestershire sauce.
-
Using clean hands, thoroughly mix all the ingredients until well combined. 🤲
-
Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it in a small baking pan. Ensure the loaf is evenly shaped for consistent cooking.
-
Spread 3 tablespoons of catsup evenly over the top of the meatloaf. This adds a tangy sweetness to the dish as it bakes. 🍅
-
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until the meatloaf is cooked through and the top is nicely browned. The internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C) for optimal doneness.

Once cooked, remove the meatloaf from the oven and allow it to rest for a few minutes before slicing. This helps the juices redistribute, resulting in a moist and tender meatloaf. ⏲️
