This meatloaf is extremely juicy, and the potential variety of different flavors is as big as your imagination. I've done American cheese with ketchup and mustard on top and served with dill pickle chips. Another one might be cheese and mushroom topping. I suggest using an 85/15 ground beef because the higher fat content ensures a more tender and moist meatloaf. You can use lower-fat ground beef, but your meatloaf will likely be a little more firm and less juicy.

Ingredients

Chips, for serving
1/4 cup Grated yellow onion
8 oz. Cheddar, cut into small cubes
1 tsp. Freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp. Kosher salt
1/4 cup Mustard
1 1/4 cups Ketchup
2 Red onions，1 finely chopped and 1 thinly sliced
2 Large eggs
6 sticks Crisp cooked bacon, chopped
2 pounds 85/15 ground beef
1/2 cup Milk
6 slices Toast, cubed
Cooking spray

Method

01

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a broiler pan with cooking spray.
02

Mix the bread and milk in a bowl and set aside.
03

Add the ground beef, bacon, eggs, chopped red onion, 2 tablespoons ketchup, 1 tablespoon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to a large bowl. Add the soaked bread and mix with your hands, trying to keep the mixture light. Gently mix in the cubed Cheddar, making sure to distribute it evenly throughout the meat.
04

Form the meat mixture into a loaf approximately 6 to 8 inches wide and 1 1/2 inches thick on the prepared pan. Mix the grated yellow onion with the remaining 1 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in another bowl. Spread half of the sauce on top of the meatloaf. Tent the pan with foil and bake for 1 hour.
05

Remove the foil, add the rest of the sauce and continue baking until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F and the meatloaf is no longer pink in the middle, another 35 to 40 minutes. Sprinkle on the grated Cheddar and return to the oven for 5 minutes to melt. Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before removing it to a platter.
06

Slice and serve with the sliced red onions and chips.
