- 4 1/2 pounds ground beef
- 1 1/2 cups Italian bread crumbs
- 2 (4.5 ounce) packages noodle soup mix (such as Lipton® Soup Secrets®)
- 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce (such as Hunt's®), divided
- 4 eggs
- 1 yellow onion, chopped
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/2 (4 ounce) packet saltine crackers, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, divided
- 1 tablespoon barbeque sauce
- 2 teaspoons steak sauce (such as A1®)
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons ground black pepper, divided
- 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder, divided
- 1 teaspoon onion powder, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Place a large cast iron skillet in the oven. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Combine ground beef, Italian bread crumbs, noodle soup mix, 1/2 the tomato sauce, eggs, onion, ketchup, cracker crumbs, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, barbeque sauce, steak sauce, salt, 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon onion powder in a large bowl; mix well.
- Mix remaining tomato sauce, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl until topping is smooth.
- Remove skillet from the oven. Place ground beef mixture in skillet, smoothing the top. Spread topping over beef.
- Bake in the preheated oven until beef is mostly cooked through, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Remove from oven and drain off grease. Return to the oven and continue cooking until meatloaf juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 1 hour more.
- Remove meatloaf from oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes before serving.
