Ingredients You’ll Need:
For the Meatloaf:
- 1 lb ground beef (or ground pork or turkey for a leaner version)
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crunch)
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup milk (for moisture)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger (optional but adds a nice depth)
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Korean BBQ Glaze:
- 3 tablespoons gochujang (Korean chili paste)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped (optional, for garnish)
How to Make Sweet & Spicy Korean BBQ Meatloaf:
1. Preheat the Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease or line a loaf pan with parchment paper to make sure the meatloaf doesn’t stick.
2. Prepare the Meatloaf Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, milk, egg, soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, ground ginger, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix everything together using your hands or a spoon until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated. Be careful not to overwork the meat mixture, as that can lead to a dense meatloaf.
