Stuffed Meatloaf

This stuffed meatloaf is sort of an "inside out" stuffed pepper. It's stuffed with yellow, red and orange peppers, lots of onions and obey gooey cheddar. The smoky flavor from the seasoning packet is the finishing touch for this delicious meal!

  • 3 peppers – 1 red, 1 yellow and 1 orange seeded and chopped
  • 1 white onion chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar
  • 2 lbs. ground beef
  • 1 packet of McCormick Slow Cookers Bbq Pulled Pork Seasoning Mix
  • 1 egg
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ½ cup salsa or tomato sauce


Sauté peppers and onions in olive oil until soft and onions are translucent.
Set a side and let cool for 10 minutes.

Add shredded cheddar to pepper and onions until thoroughly mixed.

In a bowl, mix meat, egg, seasoning packet and salt and pepper until well incorporated. Lay down a piece of wax paper in a large cookie sheet and pressed the meat mixture in until you get it perfectly even and flat.

Spread onion/pepper, cheese mixture all of the meat and taking one end of the wax paper, roll up jellyroll style. Remove the wax paper and place in baking pan seam side down. Place two small pieces of foil on each end of the meat roll to prevent filling from oozing out too much.

Bake at 350 degrees for about an hour, top/spread with salsa (or tomato sauce) and then cook an additional half and hour. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing.

Enjoy!
