This meatloaf, or meatloaf, is made with a mixture of lean beef and turkey, yet it's incredibly juicy, mouthwatering, and rich in flavor. This is thanks to the spinach mixed into the ground meat, which makes it even healthier, and also to the cooking method. The ground meat is formed into a loaf and wrapped in foil. This way, the meatloaf retains its juiciness during grilling, cooks faster than in the oven, and develops a delicious crust with grill marks. When grilling, carefully flip the loaf with two spatulas to avoid damaging the foil and disrupting the microclimate inside.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
In a medium bowl, combine milk, egg, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce and 1 tablespoon. barbecue sauce.

Finely chop the spinach, onion, and garlic on a cutting board. Transfer to a bowl with the ground beef and turkey, adding 1 teaspoon of salt and a pinch of ground black pepper. Gently mix everything together with your hands.
Spray a 20-inch (50 cm) sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil with cooking spray. Line the foil with the meatloaf and form it into a 9 x 5-inch (22 x 12 cm) loaf, 1 inch (2.5 cm) thick. Fold the long side of the foil over the meatloaf, aligning the edges, and press and fold them tightly to form a sealed package.
Place the meatloaf on the grill, cover, and cook for 10 minutes. Turn the meatloaf over using two large metal spatulas; cover with a lid and cook for another 10 minutes. Then remove and let the meat rest for 5 minutes.
Carefully unwrap the meatloaf (be careful not to burn yourself with hot steam). The meatloaf should have char marks from the grill grate on the surface, and the internal temperature should be 165°F (74°C). Brush the top and sides of the meatloaf with the remaining 3 tablespoons of barbecue sauce. Slice and serve.
