Kickin’ Sheet Pan Orange BBQ Meatloaves
with Cheesy Potato Wedges & Roasted Broccoli
- Milk
- Wheat
Finding yourself in a meatloaf rut? Enter this sweet and savory version. First, we blend ground pork with BBQ seasoning, scallions, and crispy panko breadcrumbs. Next, we form the mixture into mini loaves (so that everyone gets their own!). The pièce de résistance? We swap out the usual ketchup glaze for BBQ sauce that’s laced with smoky chipotle powder and tangy mandarin orange juice. Add sides of cheesy potato wedges and roasted broccoli, and your usual meat-and-spuds dinner is new and improved!

Cooking Steps
• Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens; mince whites. Halve mandarin. Cut broccoli florets into bite-size pieces if necessary.
• Toss potatoes on one side of a lightly oiled baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. (For 4 servings, spread potatoes out across entire sheet.) • Roast on top rack for 10 minutes (you’ll add more to the sheet then).
• While potatoes roast, in a large bowl, combine pork*, panko, BBQ Seasoning, scallion whites, ¾ tsp salt (1½ tsp for 4 servings), and a pinch of pepper. Form into two 1-inch-tall loaves (four loaves for 4). • In a small bowl, combine BBQ sauce, a big squeeze of mandarin juice, and chipotle powder to taste. Taste and season with salt; add more mandarin juice and chipotle powder if desired.
Swap in beef for pork.
• Once potatoes have roasted 10 minutes, remove sheet from oven. Carefully add broccoli to empty side; using tongs, toss with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. Place porkloaves on same side of sheet as broccoli. (For 4 servings, leave potatoes roasting; add porkloaves and broccoli to a second, lightly oiled sheet. Roast on middle rack.) • Roast on top rack for 15 minutes (you’ll glaze the porkloaves then).
• Once porkloaves and broccoli have roasted 15 minutes, remove sheet from oven. • Carefully push potatoes together so they’re overlapping; sprinkle with Monterey Jack. • Brush tops of porkloaves with 1 TBSP glaze each (save the rest for serving). • Return to oven until porkloaves are cooked through, glaze is tacky, cheese is melted, and broccoli is tender, 2-3 minutes more.
• Divide porkloaves, potato wedges, and broccoli between plates. Drizzle porkloaves with remaining glaze. Garnish with scallion greens and serve.

Reviews from our home cooks
I loved this meal for so many reasons. It was a fun and unique take on a traditional meatloaf using pork and an orange BBQ sauce. It was fun adding a sprinkle of cheese to the potato wedges. I loved that prep was easy and everything cooked on one sheet!
Love sheet pan suppers like this one! Easy prep and easy clean up. The cheese was a nice addition to the potatoes, and I really liked the orange barbeque sauce. Lots of good flavor in the porkloaves.
We used the ground beef in place of pork for the meatloaves, which was our first time trying Hello Fresh ground meat - it was very good quality (no gristle noted) and the meatloaves turned out very tender and sooooo tasty! The mandarin orange and Chipotle spice incorporated into the BBQ sauce was genius - delicious!! This particular menu seemed to provide larger portions with the Yukon Gold potatoes and Broccoli, which made my "hungry man" husband very happy.
I LOVED this. The broccoli was a bit plain, and I found myself wishing I'd either used the cheese on the broccoli or used a sharper cheese on the potato wedges, but I loved the meatloaves, and there was just enough sauce to dip the sides in to give them an extra kick, too.
Its called Kickin' Sheet Pan Orange BBQ Porkloaves. But it isn't listed as spicy. Its VERY spicy!!!
The cheesy potatoes were delicious! Broccoli was good too, but we boiled them with butter instead. The meatloaves took a lot longer to cook than expected and had a strong taste. They were good but didn't taste very orangey despite using all the mandarin
This dish had me licking the plate for more! The meatloaf was moist and flavorful, savory with a little sweetness, and the sauce added the perfect tangy top. The cheesy potatoes complimented it perfectly! I will be making this again for sure!!
A tip - soak the potatoes in water before preparing and they turn out extremely moist and yummy! The BBQ/chipolte sauce was a bit on the hot side for those that prefer things more mild, but they get your attention and carry a lot of taste. The meatloaves were extremely moist and tasty.
This was a fun meal to make - the roasted broccoli and potatoes were awesome, the meatloaves were easy and the flavor was different.
All on one sheet pan in the oven - want more like this - no stovetop mess and cleanup. Delicious!
