Individual-Sized Meatloaves

I love making individual sized meatloaves. The best thing about them is they cook up in less than half the time of a full-sized meatloaf. So easy to make for a weeknight meal.

How To Prevent Meatloaf From Being Dry

  • Don’t use ground beef that is too lean. You want some fat content to keep it juicy.
  • Don’t overmix. Just gently mix the ingredients together until everything is evenly distributed. Overmixing will make for a tough meatloaf.
  • Don’t overcook. These mini meatloaves do not need long to cook, only about 20 minutes.

Type Of BBQ Sauce To Use

You can use any BBQ Sauce you like best. A little gets mixed into the meatloaf for flavor and the rest gets brushed on top as a glaze. I like to use one that is both sweet and spicy.

Why No Salt In Ingredients?

The bacon, cheese, Worcestershire sauce, and BBQ sauce will all add salt so you shouldn’t need any extra. You can add a pinch to the meatloaf mixture if you like highly salted foods.

Storage

Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 days.
