Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 3/4 cup milk
• 2/3 cup finely chopped onions
• 2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp ground sage
• 1 1/2 lbs ground beef
• 1/2 cup ketchup
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 tsp dry mustard
• 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

Instructions

1. Prepare the Meatloaf Mixture:

   • In a large bowl, combine eggs, milk, breadcrumbs, chopped onions, salt, sage, and ground beef. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

2. Shape and Cook in Slow Cooker:

   • Shape the meat mixture into an oval loaf, approximately 6 inches in diameter.
   • Carefully place the meatloaf in a slow cooker.

3. Slow Cooking:

   • Cook on low heat setting for 5 to 6 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the meatloaf to cook through.

4. Prepare the Glaze:

   • In a small bowl, mix together ketchup, brown sugar, dry mustard, and ground nutmeg to create the glaze.

5. Apply Glaze and Finish Cooking:

   • About 15 minutes before the meatloaf is done, pour the prepared glaze over the top of the meatloaf.
   • Cover the slow cooker again and cook on high for an additional 15 minutes to allow the glaze to caramelize slightly.

6. Serve:

   • Once fully cooked, slice the meatloaf and serve hot. It can also be cooled and used for delicious sandwiches.

Tips for Success

• Choosing Ground Beef: Opt for lean ground beef to reduce the fat content slightly without sacrificing flavor.
• Slow Cooker Settings: Adjust cooking times based on your slow cooker model; some may cook faster or slower than others.
• Serving Suggestions: Pair this meatloaf with mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables for a complete meal, or enjoy it cold in sandwiches the next day.
