Meatloaf is a true American classic! And, everyone seems to have their own fixings when it comes to creating their own version of it, so I thought I would take a stab at concocting my own meatloaf recipe.
This is very different from what I usually post. It’s a little more “down home”-style, but trust me this is easy to make and delicious!
A lot of people use ketchup on their meatloaf, but I decided to use Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ Sauce instead. And, I paired it with mashed potatoes and green beans. Yum!
