Ingredients
1 cup diced onion
1/4 cup oil
1 1/2 pounds ground beef
2 cups Thousand Island dressing
1 cup whole milk
4 gloves garlic minced
6 eggs, beaten
Pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound sharp Cheddar, cut into 1-inch thick strips
1 cup BBQ sauce
Butter cooking spray
12 slices marble rye bread, for serving
Tomato slices, for serving
Lettuce, for serving
4 dill pickles
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Heat a large skillet with the oil over medium heat and saute the onions until translucent. Remove to a large bowl and let cool.
- Add all the remaining ingredients, except the cheese and BBQ sauce, to the bowl and combine well. Liberally spray a baking sheet with cooking spray Take half of the ground beef mixture and form into a loaf on the baking sheet.
- Lay the strips of cheese on top of the meatloaf, then cover with the other half of the meat mixture. When finished it should look like a block of meatloaf.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the internal temperature registers140 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. This should take about 1 hour (but please check constantly as some ovens cook faster then others). About 5 minutes before the meatloaf is ready remove from oven and coat with the BBQ sauce. Return to the oven until nicely glazed.
- Remove meatloaf from the oven to a cutting board and allow to cool. Cut the meatloaf into 1-inch thick slices and put each slice between 2 pieces of rye bread. At this point you can add, tomato, lettuce and pickle, if you like.
- Cook's Note: I like to heat a skillet up and fry the sandwich before serving.
