In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, French onion soup mix, chopped onion, egg, milk, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
Shape the mixture into a loaf shape and place it on a piece of aluminum foil. Fold the edges of the foil up to create a loose 'tray' for the meatloaf.
Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes until golden and caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.
Place the foil-wrapped meatloaf in the crockpot.
Mix the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and ketchup in a small bowl. Pour this mixture around the meatloaf, not over it.
Spread the caramelized onions on top of the meatloaf.
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours, until the meatloaf is cooked through (internal temperature of 160°F/71°C).
About 15 minutes before serving, lay the slices of Swiss cheese over the top of the meatloaf. Cover and cook until the cheese is melted.
Carefully lift the meatloaf out using the foil, transfer to a serving dish, and slice. Spoon some of the caramelized onions and broth over each slice for added flavor. Serve with mashed potatoes, green beans, or crusty bread.
