1 ½ pounds ground beef do not use lean, you want a bit of fat to keep the meatloaf moist. I used 80/20
1 ¾ cups bread crumbs possibly more
1 egg whisked
2 cloves garlic minces
½ small onion minced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon parsley chopped
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 ¼ cups your favorite BBQ sauce divided
8 hamburger buns
mayonnaise
8-12 slices bacon cooked
French-fried onions

Preheat your oven to 350 F.
Line a baking sheet with foil.
Place the ground beef into a large bowl and add all of the remaining ingredients up to the buns.
Using your hands, combine the mixture well. If it is too wet add a bit more bread crumbs. If it is too dry add just a bit of water and combine.
Place the mixture onto the foil and form into a loaf. You want a loaf that is just slightly larger around than your buns.
Brush 1/4 cup of BBQ sauce over the meatloaf then sprinkle with black pepper.
Bake 45-50 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 F.
Allow the meatloaf to rest for 10 minutes then brush with 1/2 cup BBQ sauce.
Slather buns with mayonnaise.
Slice meatloaf and place on the buns.
Add bacon, a good dollop of BBQ sauce and some French-fried onions.
Add top bun, serve, and devour.

You'll get approximately 8 servings from this recipe, depending on how thin or thick you cut the meatloaf.
