Preheat BBQ grill.
Meatloaf:
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, ⅓ c. BBQ sauce, garlic, salt and onion. Form into a loaf; place on 3 layers of aluminum foil. Fold edges of foil up to create tray for grilling.
Cover loaf with remaining BBQ sauce, saving a little for serving later on sandwiches. Layer bacon slices over meatloaf diagonally, tucking ends under loaf.
Grill over indirect heat for 1 hour or until internal temperature reaches 180 degrees. Remove from heat; tent with aluminum foil; let rest 20 minutes before slicing. Cut into 8 thick slices.
Sandwiches:
Meanwhile, add onions to large pan over high heat until beginning to sweat and brown; season with salt and pepper. Add bourbon; reduce heat to medium; cook until liquid has completely cooked into onions and onions are caramel in color.
Fry eggs according to personal preference, letting it be running if desired.
Grill/toast inside of sandwich roll halves; place a thick slice of meatloaf on bottom of each roll; top each with a cheese slice; place under a preheated broiler for a bit, if desired, to melt cheese.
Top each with reserved BBQ sauce, bourbon/caramelized onions, fried eggs, lettuce if desired and the tops of the rolls.
