Variants
BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger Meatloaf: Replace the ketchup glaze with BBQ sauce for a smoky, tangy flavor that complements the bacon.
Spicy Bacon Cheeseburger Meatloaf: Add chopped jalapeños or a few dashes of hot sauce to the meat mixture for an extra kick of heat.
Bacon Mushroom Cheeseburger Meatloaf: Add sautéed mushrooms to the meat mixture for an earthy flavor that pairs perfectly with the smoky bacon and cheese.
FAQ
Q: Can I use turkey instead of beef for a leaner option?
A: Yes! Ground turkey works well in this recipe, but it’s a bit leaner, so you may want to add a bit more moisture (like an extra tablespoon of milk) to keep it from being too dry.
Q: Can I make this meatloaf ahead of time?
A: Absolutely! You can assemble the meatloaf up to 24 hours in advance and refrigerate it until you’re ready to bake. Just add the glaze just before baking.
Q: Can I freeze the leftovers?
A: Yes, you can freeze leftover meatloaf. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then foil, and store in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.
