How to Make Barbecue Glazed Turkey Meatloaf Ww Crock Pot

  1. Fold a 24-inch length of heavy-duty aluminum foil in half lengthwise and fit it snugly into the bottom and sides of a 5-6 quart slow cooker.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1.5 lbs ground turkey, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Gently mix with your hands until just combined. Shape the mixture into a loaf.
  4. Place the meatloaf on the foil in the slow cooker.
  5. Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours, or on HIGH for 3-4 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear.
  6. While the meatloaf cooks, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup ketchup, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard.
  7. Once the meatloaf is cooked through, carefully remove the lid and spoon the glaze evenly over the top.
  8. Cover and cook for an additional 30 minutes, or until the glaze is heated through and slightly thickened.
  9. Using the foil as a sling, carefully lift the meatloaf from the slow cooker and transfer it to a serving platter.
  10. Discard the foil and let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing into 6 servings.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
