How to Make Bbq Meatloaf With Tangy Onion Topping
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of breadcrumbs, 1 large egg, ½ cup of your favorite BBQ sauce, 2 cloves minced garlic, ½ teaspoon black pepper, and 1 cup of chopped onion.
- Add 1.5 lbs ground pork and 1.5 lbs ground beef to the bowl. Gently mix with your hands or a wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Transfer the meat mixture to a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center reads 160°F (71°C).
- Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before draining off any excess grease.
- While the meatloaf is baking, prepare the topping: In a medium saucepan, sauté 2 cups thinly sliced onions in 2 tablespoons of water over medium heat until softened and lightly golden (about 8-10 minutes).
- Stir in ¼ cup of BBQ sauce and 2 tablespoons of brown sugar.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer until the sauce has thickened slightly (about 5-7 minutes), adding a tablespoon of water at a time if needed to prevent sticking.
- Spoon the tangy onion topping generously over the cooked meatloaf or serve it on the side.
