Ingredients

• 2 lbs Ground beef (80% lean)
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 2 large Eggs

• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 cup BBQ sauce, divided
• 0.5 cup Ketchup
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tbsp Brown sugar
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tsp Smoked paprika

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, onion, garlic, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Mix until well combined, but do not overwork the meat.

Step 3

Shape the meat mixture into a loaf shape and place it in the center of your prepared baking sheet.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of BBQ sauce, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and brown sugar to create the glaze.

Step 5

Brush a layer of the glaze over the top and sides of the meatloaf, reserving the rest for basting later.

Step 6

Place the meatloaf in the oven and bake for 40 minutes.

Step 7

After 40 minutes, brush the remaining glaze over the meatloaf and return it to the oven for another 20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Step 8

Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Step 9

Serve with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables, and enjoy!
