Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0.
In a big bowl, combine the first 16 ingredients (ground beef through black pepper); mix well.
Divide the mixture evenly into 4 individual round loaves.
Place into a lightly sprayed 8x8 inch glass baking dish.
Bake about 40 minutes, until the loaves are firm and the top is lightly browned.
Let stand 5-10 minutes.
While the meatloaves are baking, make the sauce: in a small saucepan over medium heat; mix together the sauce ingredients.
Cook until flavors are blended and sauce is warmed through, about 5 minutes.
To serve: pour some of the warm sauce on 4 individual plates.
Place meatloaves on top of the sauce and pour more sauce over.
Garnish with celery sticks, if desired.
