How to Make Bacon Cheeseburger Meatloaf:

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, add the ground beef, seasoned blend, garlic, pickles, liquid smoke, Worcestershire sauce, onions, bacon, ketchup, mustard, eggs, cheese, and breadcrumbs, then mix everything together until fully combined.

Step 2

Line a loaf pan with aluminum foil, then grease it with nonstick cooking spray or melted butter, and transfer the meatloaf mixture to it. Press the meatloaf mixture firmly, then shape it nicely, and place the bacon strips over the top covering the meatloaf nicely.

Step 3

Sprinkle a bit more seasoned blend if desired, then in a separate bowl, mix together the ketchup, mustard, and brown sugar until uniform, and pour half of it over the meatloaf brushing it evenly. Place it in an oven preheated at 350°F and let it bake for about 1 hour or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

Step 4

Sprinkle the cheese on top, then put it back in the oven to bake for an additional 3 minutes or until the cheese has melted. Remove the meatloaf from the oven, then let it rest for about 3 minutes, and top it with some more crumbled bacon and green onions if desired. Slice, then serve, and enjoy!
