Pecan Smoked Meatloaf

[Pat G]

I was in the mood for some meatloaf and I wanted to change it up a little bit. On Barb's recommendation I ditched the usual CI skillet and found an old pan and cooked it on a rack. I also saw someone on the forum add mushrooms to his meatloaf. Both this suggestions worked out great.

The ingredients.


Ready to go.


My usual sauce.


On the performer with some pecan chips for flavor.


After an hour. I opened the bottom vents up for the last 10 minutes to get a little caramelization.


All done.


This was the best meatloaf I have ever made, moist and full of flavor. The performer continues to amaze me at how it holds constant temperatures. I have had it 5 months now and it seems to be perfectly seasoned and the lid seals up nicely. I need to cook on my newer kettle more to get it to the same level.

Thanks for looking.

That looks great Pat. The pecan sounds like it would pair nicely with meatloaf.
