Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C and soak the breadcrumbs in the milk for 5 minutes.
Combine the beef mince, soaked breadcrumbs, beaten eggs, onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper in a large bowl and mix until just combined.
Shape the mixture into a loaf on a lined baking tray.
Stir together the ketchup and brown sugar and brush half over the loaf.
Bake the meatloaf for 45 minutes, brushing with the remaining glaze halfway through, until a meat thermometer inserted into the centre reads 71°C.
Rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
