Meat Loaf with Piquant Sauce

 This is my favorite meatloaf recipe.  The meatloaf is very moist and the topping carmelizes as it bakes.  Talk about the ultimate comfort food.

Ingredients
  1. Meatloaf
  2. 2 eggs, beaten
  3. 1/2 cup milk
  4. 2/3 cup bread crumbs
  5. 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
  6. 1/4 cup chopped onion
  7. 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  8. 1 teaspoon salt
  9. Sauce
  10. 6 tablespoons brown sugar
  11. 1/2 cup ketchup
  12. 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  13. 2 teaspoon dry mustard
Instructions
  1. To prepare meatloaf, beat eggs in a small bowl. Add milk and bread crumbs. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine meat, onion and seasoning. Add bread mixture. Combine.
  3. Pat mixture into a loaf pan. Mix sauce ingredients and pour over meat.
  4. Bake 350 for 1 hour.
  5. I drain my meatloaf as it bakes, carefully drain any liquid from the pan approximately 45 minutes into the baking time. This allows the topping to set during the last 15 minutes. Pour off liquid very slowly or you might pour off the wonderful sauce.
