Quick & Easy BBQ Meatloaf (5 Ingredients)

"Very easy quick meatloaf recipe. I make many varieties of meatloaf... sometimes the Italian with breadcrumbs, garlic, eggs, etc... This version is a tasty quick BBQ recipe that is great for busy nights or dinner in a rush. Sometimes I put the remaining BBQ sauce right on the loaf prior to putting it in oven if you like it a little hardened. For easy clean-up, I use a baking sheet lined with parchment paper that I spray lightly with Pam Olive Oil spray."

  1. This meatloaf was very good but I'm surprised no seasonings were used in the meat. The BBQ topping was yummy but the meat itself was bland. I'd definitely add some salt & pepper (at the minimum) next time. Thanks for sharing.
     
  2. This is the same meatloaf I have been making for years and it is always a hit with my family - even the ones that "don't like" meatloaf! Only change I make is to use a packet of onion or onion/mushroom soup mix in place of the onions. It gives it a nice boost! Thanks for posting
     
  3. I add celery bell peppers and olives use bbq sauce instead of ketchup. Delicious
     
  4. ok so didn't try it, but being from Louisiana we always begin meatloaf with the Cajun Trinity....but I wanted to add this was something that my hubby talked me into a few years ago....Topping the meatloaf with bbq sauce. I don't like full on bbq sauce, but if you don't try half an half or more or less ketchup/bbq sauce. Bbq sauce lends a delicious flavor and slight sweetness to meatloaf. Or, form mini meatloafs, or slice your meatloaf after cooking....chill it out in fridge or freezer and serve cold meatloaf sandwiches for dinner, yummo!!
     
  5. Didn't have a lot of flavor. It was ok but nothing to brag about. I used kc masterpiece bbq sauce & quaker oats.

  1. By far the easiest, quickest and tastiest meatloaf I've every had/made. Like other reviewers I substituted the chopped onion for a packet of onion soup mix. I actually think this gave the meat a lot of flavor as opposed to if I'd used chopped onion. Also, I used ground turkey 93/7% instead of ground beef and cooked it for only 30 minutes to avoid drying the meat out. It turned out perfect; the meat was nice and moist. I added the BBQ sauce after cooking and popped it back into the oven for 5 more minutes. Voila, a delicious dinner. I'll be making this again.
