1 Start the Meatloaves
Turn oven on to 425 degrees. Let preheat, at least 10 minutes. Thoroughly rinse any fresh produce and pat dry.
Combine panko and 2 Tbsp. water in a mixing bowl. Let sit, 1 minutes.After 1 minute, add ground pork, BBQ spice rub (use less if spice-averse), 1/2 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Mix until completely combined. Form into four equally-sized meatloaves.Place loaves in one provided tray. Top with half the BBQ sauce (reserve remaining for garnish).Bake uncovered in hot oven, 20 minutes.Meatloaves will finish baking in a later step.While meatloaves bake, continue recipe. -
2 Prepare the Potatoes and Bacon
In second provided tray, add mashed potatoes (no need to drain), cream cheese, half the shredded cheese (reserve remaining for garnish), and ranch seasoning. Stir vigorously to combine. Cream cheese will melt as meal bakes.
Cover tightly with foil.Line a microwave-safe plate with a paper towel. Spread bacon evenly on towel-lined plate and microwave until crisp, 1-2 minutes.Carefully remove tray from oven and plate from microwave. Top meatloaves evenly with brown sugar. -
3 Bake the Meal
Bake both trays (potatoes covered, meatloaves uncovered) in hot oven until meatloaves reach a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 15-18 minutes.
Carefully remove both trays from oven. Uncover potatoes and stir vigorously until combined and smooth. Tray will be hot! Use a utensil.To serve, top mashed potatoes with remaining shredded cheese and bacon and meatloaves with remaining BBQ sauce (using a clean utensil). Bon appétit!
