Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Sirloin Meatloaf.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grab a 9x13-inch baking pan and give it a light greasing to prevent sticking. This is where the magic will happen!
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, toss in the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté them together until the onion turns translucent, which should take about 5 to 10 minutes. The aroma will be delightful!
Step 3
Next, add the diced green bell pepper to the onion and garlic mixture. Continue to sauté for another 3 minutes until the bell pepper softens. This colorful mix will add both flavor and nutrition to your meatloaf!
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground sirloin, seasoned bread crumbs, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Use your hands to mix everything together gently. Then, fold in the sautéed vegetable mixture. If the mixture feels too wet, you can add the oats to help bind it together.
Step 5
Once everything is well combined, pour in the beaten egg and mix again until it's evenly distributed. Now, transfer this hearty mixture into your prepared baking pan and shape it into a loaf. Don't worry about perfection; rustic is charming!
Step 6
Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes. While it’s baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together ketchup, sugar, honey, and a dash of hot sauce in a bowl. This sweet and tangy glaze will elevate your meatloaf!
Step 7
After 20 minutes, take the meatloaf out and brush the glaze generously over the top. Return it to the oven and continue baking for about 40 more minutes. You’ll know it’s done when the center is no longer pink, and an instant-read thermometer reads at least 160°F (70°C).
Step 8
Once baked to perfection, let the meatloaf rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, making each slice juicy and flavorful. Serve it up with your favorite sides and enjoy!
