1-Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8 x 4-inch loaf pan for baking.

2-In a large bowl, combine 2 pounds ground sirloin, 3/4 cup bread crumbs, 1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce, 1 large egg, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon dried onion flakes, and 1/4 teaspoon steak seasoning. Mix thoroughly, preferably by hand with gloves, to blend everything evenly.

3-Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it in the prepared pan, ensuring it’s packed well for even cooking.

4-Bake on the center oven rack for about 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) and no pink remains inside. This step ensures the meat is safe and juicy.

5-Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing to allow the flavors to settle and juices to redistribute.

6-Prepare brown gravy to serve over the meatloaf; you can make it from scratch using pan drippings or from a mix for simplicity.
