For a richer flavor, try adding a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce to the venison mixture. If you prefer a sweeter glaze, substitute the barbecue sauce with a mixture of ketchup, brown sugar, and a dash of apple cider vinegar. To keep the meatloaf moist, place a pan of water on the lower rack of the oven while baking.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large bowl, gently combine the ground venison, dry stuffing mix, water, finely chopped onion, 1/4 cup of the barbecue sauce, lightly beaten eggs, salt, and pepper. Mix until just incorporated, being careful not to overmix. (10 minutes)
03
StepShape the venison mixture into a loaf and place it in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread the remaining 1/4 cup of barbecue sauce evenly over the top of the loaf. (5 minutes)
04
StepBake in the preheated oven for approximately 1 hour, or until the meatloaf is no longer pink in the center and the internal temperature reaches at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C) when measured with an instant-read thermometer. (60 minutes)
05
StepLet the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful meatloaf. (10 minutes)
