Method
Combine all ingredients, except the 2 tbsp BBQ sauce; press into a microwave-safe glass or Pyrex loaf pan. Spoon remaining 2 tbsp BBQ sauce on top and sprinkle with a little black pepper. Microwave on high power for 15-20 minutes, depending on microwave, until done. Allow to rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Notes: Who knew that you could make a delicious meatloaf in the microwave in 15-20 minutes? I like to mix and cook in the same vessel, sometimes using a microwave safe bowl. This reduces the number of dishes to wash after. Works great. This is comfort food at its best. Serve it with a salad (made with packaged greens) and instant mashed potatoes and you can have a dinner on the table in no time that will have your family thinking you spent all day in the kitchen. Leftovers of this meatloaf make great sandwiches.
