This has been my favorite meat loaf recipe for years. It's from Nathalie Dupree's cookbook "New Southern Cooking" which I got from my mom many years ago. It is a great reading cookbook, but this is my favorite recipe out of the whole book. She says: "Here's my mother's time-honored meat loaf recipe." Serve it hot with mashed potatoes and English peas, or cold for sandwiches." The sauce is a bit different than the typical plain tomato or catsup on top, but I love it! I will add we love it in Recipe #258703 for leftover meatloaf chili

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. For the loaf, mix all the ingredients together, shape, and place in a greased roasting pan. Bake for 1 hour, basting occasionally with the pan juices (I leave this part out).
To make the suace, mix all the ingredients together in a small saucepan. Heat briefly and pour over individual slices of the meat loaf.
