BBQ Sweet Potato Meatloaf

Here’s a truly tasty meatloaf that’s really easy to put together and sure to become a family favorite.

Shredded sweet potatoes help keep it moist and tender, plus add a boost of vitamins and minerals. Barbecue sauce, both in the loaf and spread on top, adds a slightly sweet, slightly spicy flavor that brings it all together.

BBQ Sweet Potato Meatloaf

2 Cups shredded orange- or yellow/white-fleshed sweet potatoes, or a combination
1 Cup diced onion
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 Tablespoon yellow mustard
1 ½ Teaspoon salt
1 Teaspoon pepper
½ Cup barbecue sauce, divided, plus more for serving
2 Pounds ground beef, pork, or turkey, or a combination

BBQ Sweet Potato Meatloaf Directions

    1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
    2. In a large bowl, combine the sweet potatoes, onion, eggs, mustard, salt, pepper, and 1/4 cup of the barbecue sauce. Gently stir in the ground meat. Sprinkle in the breadcrumbs and mix until just combined.
    3. Gently pack the mixture into a 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan. Place the pan on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 1 hour.
