McCabe Family Smoked Meatloaf
The Flavor That Brings Families Together

If you love classic meatloaf, this smoked version takes it to a whole new level. Packed with bold seasoning, rich BBQ flavor, and finished with that perfect bark — this is backyard BBQ done right.

Ingredients

2 lbs 80/20 Ground Beef
1 lb Ground Pork
1 medium Onion, diced
2 Eggs
1/2 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1/2 cup McCabe Family Sauces Homestead Molasses BBQ Sauce
1 tbsp Mustard
1 tbsp McCabe Firestarter Garlic Jalapeño Seasoning
2 tbsp McCabe Bark Maker Rub (crafted with a special ingredient for enhanced bark)

Instructions

1. Build the Base
In a large mixing bowl, combine:

Ground beef
Ground pork
Mix lightly until just combined.

2. Add the Flavor
Add in:

Diced onion
Eggs
Panko breadcrumbs
Gently mix to incorporate.

3. Bring in the Signature Flavor
Now add:

Homestead Molasses BBQ Sauce
Mustard
Firestarter Garlic Jalapeño Seasoning
Bark Maker Rub
Mix everything together thoroughly until evenly combined.
(Don’t overmix — just enough to blend all ingredients.)

4. Shape the Loaf
Form the mixture into a firm, even loaf shape.
Place it on a wire rack or smoker-safe tray.

5. Smoke It Low & Slow

Preheat smoker to 225–250°F
Place meatloaf on smoker
Cook low and slow, allowing the smoke to build flavor.

6. Cook to Temperature (THE KEY STEP)

Cook until internal temperature reaches 165°F
Use a meat thermometer — do not cook by time alone
Pro Tip:
At 150–155°F, brush on an extra layer of Homestead Molasses BBQ Sauce for a rich, caramelized glaze.

7. Rest Before Serving
Remove from smoker and let rest for 10–15 minutes.
This locks in juices and makes slicing cleaner.

8. Slice & Serve
Slice into thick portions and serve hot.
