    If it was up to my boyfriend we would have these weekly. I compromized, so we have them monthly. I love these mini meatloaves for thier simplicity and comfort. They are like large chicken nuggets and bring me so much joy.

    They are easy to make and such a crowd-pleaser. I'm not a huge fan of traditional meatloaves, probably because of the thick ketchup sauce on the top. However, I find these mini chicken meatloaves super cute and extra delicious. I dare you find one person who would say no to their own personal Mini BBQ Chicken Meatloaf.

    TRICKY BITS

    • BBQ Sauce- I've tried out a few different sauces on these meatloaves. Some success, I think the ones with high sugar, seem to caramelized more. If you are worried, you can wait to put the bbq on after the meatloaves have cooked, but either way, you should be fine. I haven't had a bad experience yet!

    OTHER VARIATIONS

    • Turkey: You can use turkey, but get one with higher fat content. When I have gotten the really lean turkey, 98%, the meatloaves come out tough and dry. 
    • I'm working on a Buffalo Chicken version- I'll update this post with a link to it once it's finalized. 🙂
