When I was growing up meatloaf night meant a brick of ground beef, studded with huge chunks of onions, and coated in a thick layer of sticky ketchup. I remember it being described to me tasting like a hamburger patty without the cheese. Yea, um, no. I didn't like meatloaf night no matter how much I loved ketchup and hamburger patties.
Lucky for Kelsie, because Kayla eats everything, my meatloaf doesn't include huge chunks of onions, because she wouldn't eat it. And the ketchup has been replaced with a BBQ sauce that is sweet and spicy. We love this Chipolte Bourbon BBQ sauce from Hak's. I found it one day at Target, and we have been hooked and use it as our go-to BBQ sauce.

Thank you! Yes, when our daughter was diagnosed with an egg allergy, we had to figure out a meatloaf that was egg free. This was a huge hit!

I made this with turkey for a leaner option. I didn't have dijon so I used spicy brown mustard and horseradish instead.... omg so good! My boyfriend loved it as well!
Joanna
Love hearing that Allison! 🙂
