Notes

I used smoked streaky bacon.
You can prepare the sauce standalone to use with other dishes.
I used Thermobextas *amazing* tomato sauce recipe for my sauce, in which I substitute the raw honey with coconut sugar πŸ™‚
This is loosely inspired by the Womans Weekly BBQ Meatloaf.

    Another triumph! I baked the meatloaf & served it with rustic mash & gravy from dinners 2 and it was absolutely DELECTABLE! Thank you so much Nik!

    Thank you so very much for this recipe. I cooked it for the first time last night and OMG it was so good. The most amazing part was my fussy master 12 not having to drown everything in tomato sauce. I highly recommend this. I did put in a couple of cups of frozen veg that I blitzed up just to get some extra hidden veg into the meal.

  5. That was my first meatloaf ever as I have bad childhood memories- but it was seriously good, so much so that my 3 year old keeps calling it meat cake! I didn’t have enough breadcrumbs so used half a cup of chia seeds as well. I used store bought tomato sauce in the bbq sauce and needed to cook it for an extra five minutes to thicken. Thank you, a seriously good meal.

  6. YUM YUM YUM YUM YUM YUM YUM!! Have made this a couple times now – it is so good! Tonight I used lime juice as I didn’t have a lemon and I also doubled the sauce, and it turned out perfectly. Lots of leftovers too, which reheats beautifully, sliced up in the oven πŸ™‚

  7. I made this for the first time tonight and it was a big hit with the family. Definitely will be making it often. Even my sauce hating 10 year old asked for more sauce.

  8. What tomato sauce do i use if i dont want to make a big batch? Do i use shop bought tomato sauce (which i dont want to use) or can i use a tin of tomatoes or something like that?
