Ingredients

2 lbs ground beef (80/20)
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 large egg, beaten
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 cup barbecue sauce (plus more for glaze)
8 hamburger buns
Optional: coleslaw for topping

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, onion, egg, garlic, salt, pepper, and 1/2 cup barbecue sauce. Mix until just combined.
Shape the mixture into a loaf shape on the prepared baking sheet, about 9x5 inches.
Brush the top and sides of the loaf with additional barbecue sauce (about 1/4 cup).
Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). Let rest 10 minutes.
Slice the loaf into 8 thick slices. Serve each slice on a hamburger bun with extra barbecue sauce and coleslaw if desired.

Tips

For a smoky flavor, use hickory-smoked barbecue sauce.
Leftover loaf can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave or oven.
Toast the buns lightly for extra texture.
