Bacon Double Cheeseburger Stuffed Meatloaf
- 1 lb 93% lean beef
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup 2% low-fat milk
- 6 tablespoons ketchup, divided
- 1 tablespoon McCormick's Montreal Brand steak seasoning
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 8 ounces mild cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 lb bacon, uncooked
- Preheat oven to 350u0b0F.
- In a large bowl combine beef, bread crumbs and milk. Pouring milk directly over bread crumbs. Add 2 tablespoons ketchup, Worcestershire and steak seasoning. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, crack egg and beat it slightly. This helps prevent overworking the meat while combining, resulting in a tougher meatloaf. Add egg to large bowl with meat mixture. Combine well with hands, do not overwork the meat mixture.
- Gentle press meatloaf into bowl and divide in half. Place first half into 7x10" baking dish and form into a flat meatloaf Gently press the center in to create a rim around the outside of the meatloaf. Add shredded cheese i nto the center of the meatloaf.
- Form remaining half of meatloaf in the bowl into a size similar to the meatloaf in the pan. Set op top and press the sides together to seal in the cheese. Form into a loaf shape about 11/2 - 2" tall.
- You may notice cracks in the loaf. Run your hands under warm water and then across the meatloaf to smooth the cracks out. Set meatloaf aside.
- In a small bowl combine 4 tablespoons ketchup and 1 tablespoon brown sugar. Mix well with a fork. Apply glaze evenly all over your meatloaf (except the bottom).
- Arrange bacon slices over the top of the meatloaf. Start by wrapping a piece of bacon across the front side and a second piece of bacon across the back side. Arrange remaining bacon over the top. Tuck the ends of the bacon under the meatloaf (this prevents curling).
- Place meatloaf in the oven and bake until bacon is crispy, about 1 hour.
- Remove from oven. Allow to rest uncovered for 20 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
