I love a spicy meat loaf, but you can substitute the jalapeno peppers I use for mild peppers or onions, and change up the spices, add herbs, whatever you like. If this makes too big of a loaf for you, you can easily cut the recipe in half.
Difficulty: Easy
Servings: many
Prep Time: 20 minutes Cook Time: 1 1/2 hoursIngredients
2 pounds ground beef
1/2 cup beer, dark rum, or apple juice
1/2 cup sweet barbeque sauce
1/2 cup diced jalapeno peppers
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons garlic salt
2 teaspoons crushed red and black peppers
sweet barbeque sauce for topping
Directions
Mix all ingredients (except the barbeque sauce for topping) until well combined. To bake in a loaf pan, I use an extra-large loaf pan (1 1/2 quarts). Or, shape free-form and place in a baking dish. After transferring to the greased loaf pan or baking dish, pour barbeque sauce over the top. Bake, uncovered, at 350-degrees for 1 1/2 hours.
