Upside-Down Barbeque Meatloaf

Ingredients

• 1 3/4 pounds very cold ground beef
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon celery salt
• 1/4 teaspoon chipotle chile powder
• 1 pinch cayenne pepper
• 1/2 cup fine, dry breadcrumbs
• 1 egg, beaten
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/4 cup barbeque sauce (such as Sfq), or to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Mix ground beef, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, celery salt, chipotle chile powder, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl with your hands.

Stir breadcrumbs, egg, ketchup, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce into meat mixture until thoroughly combined; form into a loaf shape.

Spread barbeque sauce out into the bottom of a loaf pan; place meatloaf on top of barbeque sauce and press into pan.

Bake meatloaf in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour, 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Drain the fat from the loaf pan and invert pan over a plate to transfer meatloaf. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
