Instructions
In a large bowl, add the ground beef, onion, pepper, garlic, egg, 1/3 cup BBQ sauce, bread crumbs, salt, pepper and cayenne.
Using your hands, knead the meat mixture until everything is well combined.
Mold the meat into a log/loaf shape and sprinkle with BBQ rub.
Start up your smoker and get it to 250F. You can use many different types of wood (hickory, pecan, maple, mesquite). I used hickory for this smoke.
Place meatloaf in smoker once the smoker reaches 250F.
Brush with remaining 1/3 cup BBQ sauce after about 2 hours of smoking.
Remove when the internal temperature is at 160F.
