Great Meatloaf from Virginia

Absolutely delicious meatloaf and sauce! Those who claim they don't believe there can be such a thing as a great meatloaf will love this.
Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 lbs ground beef (ground shoulder roast is good)
  • 1 slice bread (broken or chopped finely)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 small vidalia
onions or 1 small type sweet onion, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon table salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1/2-2/3 cup whole milk or 1/2-2/3 cup half-and-half
  • Sauce
    • 4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
    • 2 -4 tablespoons dark brown sugar, packed firm (to taste)
    • 1/2 cup ketchup
    Directions:
    1. Meatloaf: Combine meat loaf ingredients and place into a loaf baking dish.
    2. Smooth out top.
    3. Sauce: Combine sauce ingredients and pour on top and sides of meatloaf.
    4. Bake at 350°F about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes or until done.
    5. ENJOY!
    6. *The addition of 1 or 2 teaspoons of Kitchen Bouquet makes this recipe very good.
    7. **Recipe should be"plump" from the addition of the milk or Half & Half.
    8. It should NOT be runny.
    9. ***A second batch of sauce served hot is good to serve with the meatloaf.
    10. Note: I note that some of you are using game meat such as deer -- Deer is a very DRY meat. It is wise to HAVE some fat added to the deer -- especially to ground deer. Maybe 25 % fat, ( I recommend 1 lb of ground venison, and 1/2 lb of deer sausage for fat content), otherwise your results will be poor. I don't know about some of the other game meat some are using. Please consult and expert. The recipe is delicious as it stands! Enjoy!
