1

Put all the ground brisket into a large soup pot.

2

Wash hands before adding spices.

3

Add 1 tablespoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of garlic powder to the brisket.

4

Mix the ingredients with hands, ensuring to mix well and get to the bottom of the mixture.

5

Fill a vintage CorningWare loaf pan with about 2 pounds of the meat mixture, making sure not to overfill it due to grease drainage.

6

Even out the remaining meat mixture into a 9x13 Pyrex pan.

7

Prepare to freeze the second meatloaf by letting it cool after baking, then cut into portioned pieces and freeze on a tray lined with wax paper before transferring to a gallon Ziploc bag.

8

Add ketchup on top of the meatloaf, using an entire 32-ounce bottle for the 5-pound loaf and the remainder for the 2-pound loaf.

9

Shake the pan to even out the ketchup on top.

10

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

11

Bake both meatloaves in the oven for about 45 minutes, checking for doneness and ensuring the ketchup doesn't burn.

12

After 45 minutes, check the meatloaf; if not done to preference, return it to the oven for an additional 15 minutes for caramelization.
