Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Line a rimmed baking sheet with non-stick foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray.

Add saltine crumbs, parmesan cheese, milk and Worcestershire Sauce to a bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.

In a food processor, add the onion, garlic and parsley and pulse until very finely minced.

In a large bowl, combine the beef, eggs, onion mixture, saltine mixture, BBQ sauce, and All Purpose seasoning. Mix until just combined.

Form into a loaf on the prepared baking sheet. Be careful not to pack it too tightly.

Bake for 40 minutes.

While the meatloaf is baking, combine the glaze ingredients in a small bowl.

Evenly coat the top of the meatloaf with the BBQ glaze and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F.

Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Soak Your Saltines 🥣
Soak the saltine crackers in milk for 2-3 minutes before mixing into the meat to create a tender, moist meatloaf that won't dry out during baking.
Don't Overwork the Meat 🤚
Mix the meatloaf ingredients gently with your hands for just 1-2 minutes—overworking compacts the meat and creates a dense, tough texture instead of light and tender.
Reserve Glaze for Two-Stage Application 🍯
Apply half the BBQ glaze halfway through baking and the remainder in the final 10 minutes to build deep caramelized flavor while preventing the sauce from burning.
Use a Loaf Pan Insert or Shape Free-Form 🍞
Bake meatloaf in a loaf pan with drainage holes or shape it free-form on a baking sheet to allow excess fat to drain away, resulting in a lighter, less greasy final dish.
Rest Before Slicing 🛑
Let the finished meatloaf rest for 10 minutes after removing from the oven to allow carryover cooking and allow juices to set, making it easier to slice without crumbling.
