BBQ GLAZED MEATLOAF

 

This BBQ Glazed Meatloaf is an easy twist on classic comfort food, with plenty of savory flavor and a sweet, tangy barbecue glaze. Parmesan, Worcestershire sauce, onion, and garlic add flavor throughout the meatloaf, while an extra layer of barbecue sauce on top gets rich and sticky as it bakes. It’s an easy family dinner that pairs perfectly with mashed potatoes, green beans, or your favorite homestyle sides.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 pounds ground beef (or a beef-and-pork blend)
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup finely diced white onion
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup barbecue sauce
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ cup barbecue sauce, for the glaze

DIRECTIONS

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground meat, breadcrumbs, onion, eggs, ½ cup barbecue sauce, Parmesan cheese, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix just until combined; avoid overmixing.
  • Shape the mixture into a loaf on a shallow baking pan or parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Spread the remaining ½ cup barbecue sauce evenly over the top.
  • Bake for approximately 45–55 minutes, or until the center reaches a safe internal temperature. If using all ground beef, USDA guidance is 160°F; if the mixture contains ground poultry, it should reach 165°F.
  • Let the meatloaf rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing.
