Mother Bolles's Meatloaf

Ingredients:

2 cups freshly-made bread crumbs (four slices of bread ground in a food processor) OR 3/4 cup dry bread crumbs (premade/buy in super market)
1 onion, finely chopped
2 eggs, slightly beaten with a fork
2 pounds ground beef
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard (buy in spice aisle in can or spice jar)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
3/4 cup milk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
Butter the loaf pan. Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl with your freshly-washed hands. Mix well. Pat into loaf pan and bake for 45 minutes. Let cool for five minutes. Drain off any fat carefully.

My Grandmother Mona used to coat with thin layer of ketchup on the top and then sprinkle more bread crumbs before baking.
