Ingredients:

• Large eggs work best when they are at room temperature.
• Ritz Crackers: The ideal cracker for this meatloaf is buttery Ritz crackers.
• Milk: For the finest flavor, I use whole milk.
• incisive Cheddar Cheese: Feel free to experiment with different varieties.
• When it comes to onions in meatloaf, I like yellow onions.
• Bell Pepper: Any color will do, but I prefer to use green bell pepper.
• Salt and pepper: A fantastic way to round off the seasoning.
• Ground Beef: You can use a leaner ground beef if you’d like, but I like to use 80/20.

Topping:

• Ketchup: I usually use brands like Hunt’s or Heinz.
• You can use either light or dark brown sugar. It tastes better, in my opinion, with dark brown sugar.
• Yellow Mustard: I usually use ordinary yellow mustard, but you can also use Dijon or stone ground mustard to change up the flavor.
• Worcestershire Sauce: Cuts through the sweetness and completes the glaze’s flavor.

• Combine the meatloaf ingredients except the ground beef.

• Add the ground beef and mix.
• Make the topping: Mix all the topping ingredients.
• Assemble: Form the meatloaf and bake.
