Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a loaf pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, onion, garlic, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Mix gently with your hands or a large spoon until evenly combined, being careful not to overmix.
Add 1/2 cup of the barbecue sauce and the Worcestershire sauce to the mixture. Fold them in until fully incorporated.
Transfer the meat mixture to the prepared baking sheet or loaf pan. Shape it into an even loaf, about 2 inches thick.
Spread 1/2 cup of barbecue sauce evenly over the top of the loaf as a glaze.
Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and spread another 1/4 cup of barbecue sauce over the top.
Return the meatloaf to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C).
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm, drizzling additional barbecue sauce on top if desired. Enjoy!
