This twist on traditional meatloaf hides a cheesy surprise inside! Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef |
1/2 cup barbeque sauce |
1/2 cup milk |
1 egg |
1/2 (4.3 ounce) package real bacon bits |
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
salt and ground black pepper to taste |
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs, or as needed |
4 ounces sliced processed cheese food (such as velveeta® - or as desired |
2 tablespoons barbeque sauce |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 5x9-inch loaf pan. 2. Mix ground beef, 1/2 cup barbeque sauce, milk, egg, bacon bits, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper in a bowl; stir in bread crumbs to desired consistency. Place half the ground beef mixture into the prepared loaf pan and press an indentation into the meat mixture, leaving a 1-inch rim of meat all around the indentation. Fill the indentation with processed cheese and top with remaining meat mixture. Press lightly to seal. Brush 2 tablespoons barbeque sauce over the meatloaf. 3. Bake in the preheated oven until juices run clear and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf reads at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), 60 to 80 minutes. |
