Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 small yellow onion, finely diced
- 1 green bell pepper, finely diced
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 1 pound ground pork
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 cup (240 g) canned pinto beans, drained, rinsed
- ½ cup (108 g) plain breadcrumbs
- 1 cup (280 g) BBQ sauce, divided
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon cayenne
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup (113 g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Set aside a large loaf pan (6 ½ x 10 inches) or a similar-sized pan.
- To a medium skillet over medium heat, add vegetable oil. Once hot, add the onion and green bell pepper, sautéing until softened, about 4-5 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooled vegetables, ground beef, ground pork, eggs, pinto beans, breadcrumbs, ½ cup of the BBQ sauce, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, salt, cayenne, and black pepper. Mix gently but thoroughly until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the meatloaf from becoming tough.
- Press half of the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan, creating an even layer. Using the back of a spoon, make a shallow indentation in the center of this layer.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly within the indentation. Top with the remaining meat mixture, pressing gently to seal the cheese inside. Form into a loaf.
- Brush ¼ cup of the remaining BBQ sauce over the top of the meatloaf, reserving the rest of the BBQ sauce for later.
- Bake for 40 minutes. Carefully remove from the oven and brush with the remaining BBQ sauce.
- Return the meatloaf to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) on a meat thermometer.
- Allow the meatloaf to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
