It is quick and easy to throw together! May use homemade BBQ sauce or pour it from a purchase bottle of sauce! Sliced and eaten just like a meatloaf but it is a giant juicy BBQ beef burger patty! Serve with a side of potatoes and you have a hearty meal that will stick to your ribs.
Recommend no leaner than 97 percent ground beef to avoid becoming stuck or falling apart. It needs to have plenty of juices to cook out of it.
Mush meat patty ingredients together until well and evenly combined.
Spray oil inside of crockpot very lightly.
Mash meat down hard into bottom of crockpot — nice and tightly packed and pressed together and pat/press top of it so smooth even surface.
Smear 1/4 cup BBQ sauce on top of meat.
Turn on high for 1 hour, then low for 3 to 4 more hours (will actually form a broth and sort of float a bit towards the top of the broth as it shrinks while cooking)
Carefully lift out with two sturdy spatulas and drain bottom on paper towel for a couple of minutes. (Or, pour out liquid while keeping it from sliding out, block with STURDY spatula, and then scoot it out onto thick layer of paper towels to drain after broth has been poured off.)
Heat up 1/3 cup BBQ sauce in microwave.
Transfer meat after draining on paper towels to a serving dish and spread/smear the hot BBQ on top when it comes out of microwave.
Enjoy!!!
Great with French fries, curly fries, or seasoned oven roasted potatoes. Also, the broth is good to use in making tasty mashed potatoes or add to a pot for boiling up little potatoes.
