Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Butter the insides of a regular bread loaf or square cake pan (7 x 7 inch).
In a large bowl, combine beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, tomato-onion mix, onion, garlic powder, cheddar, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix gently.
Use your hands or a fork, but don’t overwork it, as it will make it tough, dry, and rubbery.
Transfer the mixture into a greased loaf pan. Don’t over-compress when shaping the meatloaf; be gentle. Excessive pressing or compressing the mixture will only make it denser.
Place pan on a wire rack in a baking tray to catch drips.
Brush BBQ sauce over the top and sprinkle with parsley.
Bake for 60 minutes in the 7×7-inch square pan. You may need to bake longer in a regular loaf pan, as it will be thicker.
Check that internal temp reaches 160°F (71°C).
Rest for 10 minutes before slicing, as it holds together better that way.
