Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. In a small skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat, then sauté 1 cup finely chopped yellow onion and 3 minced garlic cloves for 5 minutes until translucent and fragrant. Set aside to cool.
Step 2: In a large bowl, combine 2 lbs chopped smoked brisket, the cooled onion and garlic, 2 large eggs, 1 cup bread crumbs, 1/2 cup whole milk, 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
Step 3: Transfer mixture to a loaf pan or shape into a loaf on a lined baking sheet. Spread 3/4 cup BBQ sauce evenly over the top.
Step 4: Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour until the meatloaf is cooked through and the glaze is bubbly and caramelized.
Step 5: Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with extra BBQ sauce if desired.
