Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup milk
1 large egg
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
8 strips of smoked bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/2 cup barbecue sauce (plus more for topping)
Instructions:
Prepare the Meatloaf Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.
Add Cheese and Bacon: Fold in the cheddar, mozzarella, Swiss cheese, and crumbled smoked bacon into the beef mixture.
Shape the Meatloaf: Transfer the meat mixture into a loaf pan, pressing it down gently to form an even shape.
Bake the Meatloaf: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the meatloaf for 45-50 minutes or until it’s fully cooked through (you can check doneness with a meat thermometer; it should read 160°F or 71°C).
Layer and Stack: Once the meatloaf is baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. For each layer, add a slice of cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, and Swiss) between the meatloaf slices, then drizzle barbecue sauce between each layer.
Final Toppings: Once the stacking is done, drizzle the top with more barbecue sauce, sprinkle extra bacon crumbles, and top with any remaining cheese.
Serve: Slice and serve the decadent triple-cheese cheeseburger meatloaf stack hot. Enjoy with your favorite side or as a stand-alone meal!
