What’s better than a hearty meatloaf when you get home after a long day? Nothing says comfort like this heavenly recipe you’ll never want to stop eating.
Pro Tip: Use crispy bacon with the fat well-rendered for a more sliceable end product. If there is a lot of condensation on top of the meatloaf when it comes out of the Instant Pot, drain it before you put it under the broiler.

Instructions:
- Place potatoes in the bottom of the pot in an even layer. Add the bay leaf and chicken broth. Place the steam rack on top of the potatoes.
- In a large bowl thoroughly combine the Meatloaf Mixture ingredients.
- Gently press the meatloaf into a 6-cup bundt pan (we love this one: https://amzn.to/2RNympZ) and cover loosely with foil–do not seal.
- Use a foil sling to lower the bundt pan on to the steam rack, then secure the lid, making sure the vent is closed.
- Using the display panel select the MANUAL function*. Use the +/- keys and program the Instant Pot for 22 minutes.
- When the time is up, quick-release the remaining pressure. Remove the bundt pan and brush the top with 1/4 cup bbq sauce, then set under broiler for 5-7 minutes until sauce is bubbly and caramelized.
- Meanwhile, remove bay leaf and add half-and-half, butter, garlic powder and salt and pepper to the pot. Mash to your desired texture.
- Slice the meatloaf, top with additional crumbled bacon. Serve with the potatoes.
