Delicious Meatloaf


Ingredients:
1 large roll of ground chuck
2 vidalia onions, diced
5 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
3 grated carrots
2 beaten eggs
1 cup oatmeal
1/3 bottle Kroger thick and spicy barbecue sauce
garlic powder
salt and course ground pepper

Put all the ingredients in a large bowl and thoroughly mix everything together. I use my hands and really work the mixture until it is well blended. Shape the meatloaf in a pan and coat the top with Heinz ketchup. Sprinkle basil leaves over the top! Bake in the oven for 2 hours! I made this tonight and it was scrumptious!!
