Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9×13 pan.
In a large mixing bowl, knead together the ground beef, onion, bread crumbs, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, basil, oregano, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Shape the meat into a loaf and put it into the prepared pan. Bake in the 350 degree oven for 45 minutes.
Mix up the glaze in a small bowl by whisking together the ketchup, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce. Brush it over the hot meatloaf.
Increase the oven temperature to 400 degrees and bake an additional 15 minutes, or until the meatloaf reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees F.
