Directions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
Step 2: Mix the Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, chopped green bell pepper, beaten egg, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Step 3: Form the Loaf
Transfer the meat mixture to the greased loaf pan and shape it into a loaf.
Step 4: Make the Glaze
In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce to make the glaze.
Step 5: Glaze and Bake
Spread the glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the meatloaf is cooked through and the glaze is caramelized.
