Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan. Add the onions, thyme, salt, and pepper and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, until the onions are translucent but not brown. Off the heat, add the Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and tomato paste. Allow to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground chuck, onion mixture, bread crumbs, and eggs, and mix lightly with a fork. Don't mash or the meat loaf will be dense. Shape the mixture into a rectangular loaf on a sheet pan covered with parchment paper. Spread the ketchup evenly on top. Bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F and the meat loaf is cooked through. (A pan of hot water in the oven, under the meat loaf, will keep the top from cracking.) Serve hot.

CLASSIC MEATLOAF
Good meatloaf is about as comforting as comfort food gets. Thankfully, meatloaf doesn't have to be complex to be good. It just needs to be tender (from breadcrumbs soaked in milk and gentle handling) and flavorful (from onion, garlic, and ketchup).

Tips:
- Use a combination of ground beef and pork for a more flavorful meatloaf. Ground beef alone can be a bit dry, while ground pork adds moisture and richness.
- Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture. Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough.
- Add some grated vegetables to the meatloaf mixture for added flavor and nutrition. Grated carrots, celery, or zucchini are all good options.
- Use a loaf pan that is just big enough to hold the meatloaf mixture. A too-large loaf pan will result in a dry meatloaf.
- Bake the meatloaf at a moderate temperature (350 degrees F) for about 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F.
- Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the meatloaf hold its shape.
- Serve the meatloaf with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or roasted vegetables.
