Keys to Success
• Don’t OVER work the meat. When mixing it together be gentle and only work it until it’s mixed together
• This is a version of meatloaf you can totally mix and match your own flair!!! Add cheese or chopped up bacon!!!
• Don’t OVER think it... Meatloaf is supposed to be simple! The Simplest recipes are the BEST!!!
• Use your favourite LOCAL BBQ sauce instead of this sauce for an extra spin on it!
• Leftover meatloaf is the BOMB!!! Let it cool and slice it into thick slices and fry them up quickly on the stove for fried meatloaf sandwiches!!!
