Cheese Stuffed Meatloaf – Easy stuffed Meatloaf with gooey Cheese and a delicious BBQ topping – perfect any day dinner

I do not think any cheese lover could say no to this gooey Cheese Stuffed Meatloaf. The Cheese just oozes out with every slice.

Fortunately it is very easy to scoop up the Cheese and push back into the sliced meat, making serving these slices so convenient.

I use a very mature Cheddar, to bring out the best taste Cheddar has to offer, but you can use any Cheddar variant you prefer.

Each bite is like a little taste of cheesy heaven – if there is such a thing! And we enjoy this cheese stuffed Meatloaf all year round.

Delicious with some salads and a crusty dinner roll during Summer, and with mashed potatoes and vegetables during the colder weeks.

I say “weeks” because that is really the only cold, Winter weather we have in SA.

Serving the Meatloaf with salads during Winter would not be strange in our house though, as I have mentioned many times before, we are a salad loving family.

I tend to keep the rich casseroles and soups for the really chilly evenings when a salad just would not cut it.

Depending on who is home for dinner, I might have a piece leftover, which my son says make the best sandwich ever, sliced fairly thin.

The Meatloaf and Cheese are also set by the next morning and slices wonderfully – meat all round with a generous amount of Cheese in the center of each slice.
