Ultra-Juicy Classic Meatloaf
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Combine the ground beef, onion, bread, beaten eggs, milk, bell pepper, salt, sage, and black pepper in a large bowl and mix until evenly blended. Press the mixture into a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Spread ketchup over the top of the loaf.

  3. 3

    Bake in the preheated oven until the center is no longer pink, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should register at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
