Ingredients
2 lbs ground beef
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 onion, finely chopped
2 eggs
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/4 cup BBQ sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, eggs, cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, BBQ sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix all the ingredients together thoroughly, ensuring an even distribution of flavors.
Cooking Process
Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish and shape it into a loaf. Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). During the last 15 minutes of baking, glaze the meatloaf with additional BBQ sauce for a glossy finish. Once cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
