Bacon Cheeseburger Meatloaf Recipe Tips

  • The dill pickles are chopped finely and add a nice flavor, but they can be left out if you don’t like pickles.
  • The mayonnaise helps keep the meatloaf moist but does not add a discernible flavor.
  • If you want this meatloaf spicy, double the amount of crushed red pepper flakes.
  • For a tender and not tough meatloaf, don’t overmix the ingredients. Just gently combine them and then shape them into a loaf.
  • Ground chuck makes really tender and juicy meatloaf because it has a higher fat content than other ground beef. There will be a fair amount of grease at the bottom of the pan after you bake it but you can easily dab it up with paper towels.
