Ingredients

• 2 pounds Ground beef
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Yellow onion, finely chopped
• 0.25 cup Pickles, finely chopped
• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.25 cup Ketchup
• 1 tablespoon Mustard
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Ketchup (topping)
• 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices (topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the milk and breadcrumbs. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to allow the breadcrumbs to absorb the milk.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, add the ground beef, breadcrumb mixture, eggs, onion, pickles, shredded cheddar cheese, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Using clean hands or a sturdy spoon, mix the ingredients together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in a dense meatloaf.

Step 5

Transfer the meat mixture to the prepared loaf pan and press it down gently to form an even loaf shape.

Step 6

Spread 2 tablespoons of ketchup evenly over the top of the meatloaf.

Step 7

Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (71°C).

Step 8

Remove the meatloaf from the oven and lay the cheddar cheese slices over the top. Return the meatloaf to the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 9

Let the meatloaf rest in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 10

Enjoy your Cheeseburger Meatloaf with your favorite burger toppings or sides!
