Ingredients

• 2 pounds Ground beef
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Yellow mustard
• 2 tablespoons Ketchup
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 medium White onion, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 1 cup Shredded iceberg lettuce
• 0.5 cup Dill pickles, sliced
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.75 cup Thousand Island dressing
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, yellow mustard, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, chopped onion, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf tender.

Step 3

Press half of the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan, creating an even layer. Spread 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the layer, followed by 1/4 cup of shredded lettuce and a layer of pickles. Top with the remaining meat mixture and smooth the surface.

Step 4

Sprinkle sesame seeds evenly over the top of the meatloaf for that Big Mac-inspired look.

Step 5

Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (71°C).

Step 6

Once cooked, remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Step 7

While the meatloaf rests, mix the Thousand Island dressing with the remaining shredded lettuce in a small bowl to serve as a topping or side.

Step 8

Slice the meatloaf and serve warm with the lettuce-dressing mixture or extra pickles on the side for garnish. Enjoy your Big Mac Meatloaf!
