Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Prepare ingredients. Do not shred the cheese. Be sure to cube it so you have melted cheesy bites. It is key to the flavor of the “loaf” (still hate that word).

Mix beef, cheese, crumbs, eggs, onion and Worcestershire together in a large bowl, leaving out the milk at this stage. I use my hands to mix this; I feel it is the only way to know if it is all properly mixed without overdoing it. At this stage, it will be dry and crumbly. Add milk a little at a time until the meat comes together and is moist and easily able to stay in a “loaf” form (there’s that word again!).

Form the “loaf” (heehee) and place in a greased baking dish. Set aside.

Time for the sauce.

Mix ketchup, mustard and brown sugar in a small bowl. Pour over the meatloaf and spread evenly with a spoon/spatula. (I double the sauce because it is my favorite part!)

Bake at 350F for 1 to 1 1/2 hours depending on your oven (mine takes about 1 1/4 hours). Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. (Don’t cut it open to check inside! If you cut it open, you’ll see oozing cheese, and although it will look yummy, if you need more time in the oven, all that cheese will end up a burned mess in the bottom of your pan!)

ENJOY!
