How to Make A1 Meatloaf

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, gently combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, A1® Steak Sauce, crushed Cheez-Its, onion, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Do not overmix.
  3. Shape the meatloaf mixture into a loaf and place it in an ungreased 13x9 inch baking dish.
  4. Bake, uncovered, for 50 minutes.
  5. While the meatloaf is baking, prepare the A1® glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup and A1® Steak Sauce.
  6. After 50 minutes, spoon the A1® glaze evenly over the meatloaf.
  7. Bake for an additional 25 minutes, or until the meatloaf is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  8. Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful meatloaf.
