1/2 teaspoon savory
1/4 teaspoon pepper

1/2 cup tomato ketchup
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar

In a large bowl combine ground beef, chopped onion, egg, oats, milk, salt, savory, pepper, and parsley. Press the mixture firmly in an ungreased loaf pan. Loosen the edge and unmold into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
In a bowl, combine ketchup and brown sugar; spoon over the loaf.
