Steps:

• The original recipe says to spoon over loafs and bake 45 minutes or until no longer pink and meat thermometer reads 160 degrees, uncovered at 350 degrees. However, I bake mine without the sauce until the last 10 minutes or so and then spoon the mixture over the loaves, replacing them back in oven to finish cooking.

Spread 1 Tablespoon BBQ sauce over each loaf then bake for 20 minutes, or until no longer pink in the center.
