A delightful twist on a classic comfort food, st￭ cowboy meatloaf combines seasoned ground beef with a gooey cheese filling and BBQ flavor.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 ½ pounds ground beef
1 cup breadcrumbs
2 large eggs
½ cup BBQ sauce, plus more for topping
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
½ cup green bell pepper, finely chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures even cooking for your meatloaf.
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, ½ cup of BBQ sauce, chopped onion, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.
On a clean surface, form the meat mixture into a rectangular shape, about 1 inch thick. Make sure it’s large enough to hold the filling.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped green bell pepper evenly over the meat mixture.
Carefully roll the meatloaf from one end to the other, making sure to enclose the filling completely. Pinch the ends to seal it.
Place the rolled meatloaf on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the top with additional BBQ sauce for flavor and a nice glaze.
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
