Deliciously spooky meatloaf, perfect for Halloween festivities!
This is something I threw together for our family's special Halloween night. The boys absolutely loved it! I think this will be an annual tradition from now on in our household!





Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds ground beef
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- ¾ cup buttery round crackers, crushed
- ⅔ cup milk
- ½ cup finely shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt (such as Morton® Nature's Seasons® Seasoning Blend), or to taste
- 1 hard-boiled egg, cut in half
- ½ cup ketchup
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons barbeque sauce (such as Stubb's®)
- 5 cloves garlic, cut into small pieces
Directions
- Step 1:Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and grease the foil.
- Step 2:Mix ground beef, onion, crackers, milk, Cheddar cheese, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, and seasoned salt together in a bowl. Transfer beef mixture to the prepared baking sheet and form into a skull-shape, leaving holes for "eye sockets" and a "mouth". Place hard boiled egg halves into the "eye sockets", shaping the beef mixture around them to hold in place.
- Step 3:Mix ketchup, brown sugar, and barbeque sauce together in a bowl until sauce is smooth. Spread 1/2 of the sauce onto the entire beef mixture, including the "eyes" and "mouth".
- Step 4:Bake in preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 50 to 60. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
- Step 5:Arrange the garlic pieces in the mouth for the "teeth". Brush the remaining sauce over the meatloaf or serve on the side.
