How to Make Amazing Gluten Free Barbecued Meatloaf Minis
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, thoroughly combine all meatloaf ingredients (see below).
- Spoon the meatloaf mixture evenly into a standard 12-cup muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ full.
- Alternatively, shape the meatloaf mixture into a loaf pan (approximately 9x5 inches).
- For muffin-size meatloaf minis, bake for 45 minutes. For a loaf pan meatloaf, bake for 60 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center registers 160°F (71°C).
- While the meatloaf bakes, prepare the barbecue sauce: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine all sauce ingredients. Stir frequently until the sugar dissolves and the sauce thickens slightly (about 5-7 minutes).
- Once the meatloaf is cooked through, generously spoon the barbecue sauce over the top.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
