Indulge in this quick and easy Smoky Bacon Cheeseburger Stuffed Meatloaf, a comfort food masterpiece loaded with flavors and textures.
Ingredients
- • Ground beef: 1 pound
- • Breadcrumbs: 1/2 cup
- • Egg: 1 large
- • Worcestershire sauce: 1 tablespoon
- • Smoked paprika: 1 teaspoon
- • Garlic powder: 1 teaspoon
- • Salt: 1 teaspoon
- • Black pepper: 1/2 teaspoon
- • Cheddar cheese: 1 cup, shredded
- • Cooked bacon: 6 slices, chopped
- • Yellow onion: 1 small, finely diced
- • Ketchup: 1/4 cup
- • Brown sugar: 1 tablespoon
- • Mustard: 1 tablespoon
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- 2 In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are well incorporated, being careful not to overwork the meat.
- 3 On a piece of parchment paper, flatten the meat mixture into a rectangle about 1/2-inch thick. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the surface, followed by the chopped bacon and diced onion.
- 4 Carefully roll up the meatloaf starting from one of the short ends, using the parchment paper to help guide it into a tight roll. Seal the edges to encase the filling completely.
- 5 Place the meatloaf seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with foil. In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard. Spread this glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
- 6 Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the meatloaf is cooked through and the glaze is caramelized. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Serving Suggestions
- • Serve this indulgent meatloaf with a side of creamy mashed potatoes or crisp coleslaw to balance the richness. For a complete meal, consider pairing it with roasted vegetables such as Brussels sprouts or carrots for added texture and flavor contrast. A cold glass of iced tea or a rich stout beer would complement the smoky, cheesy notes perfectly.
Storage Tips
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place slices of meatloaf in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until warmed through. This will help retain the moisture and keep the cheese gooey.
