Instructions

Place a large cast iron skillet into the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Make the meatloaf mixture: Combine ground beef, bread crumbs, soup mix, 1/2 of the tomato sauce, eggs, onion, ketchup, cracker crumbs, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, barbecue sauce, steak sauce, salt, 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon onion powder in a large bowl; mix until well combined.
Make the topping: Mix remaining tomato sauce, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl until is smooth.
Remove the hot skillet from the oven. Press meatloaf mixture into 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 more hour.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes before serving.
