Snow Storm Meatloaf

[Jim Lampe]

started with 2.5 lbs of ground beef, 1.5 lbs of pork seasoned with Italian herbs...
added onions, green peppers, gaaaaaalic and a truckloada other stuff
formed it into like a halfa football on parchment

with last night's snow just startin' i shoveled a path to the Pigvilion

then shoveled out the PV

fired up the 26"OTG with a mix of used Kingsford and new hardwood charcoal...
with hickory and a touch of apple wood for smoke.
Then gently placed the loaf on the grate over a foil pan near the fire.

almost forgot to add the potatoes

with the loaf probed for an internal temp of 155-160º, I checked on everything inside after an hour.
now, i've seen this happen in a microwave, butt never in a grill.

one of the taters exploded... well, kinda. It looked pretty cool ;D
anyway, we continued... check the temp.... yep. 158º. Time to remove and rest.

and after that rest, it was sliced thick and served with carrol & gus

easy-peasy meatloaf and very yummy in your tummy good!
Thank you for stoppin' by, SoLong!

Your on a roll today Jim, love it.

 

[Bob Mann]

Wow, looks great Jim!

Excellent cook Jim. Wrap it in bacon and you could call it a fattie. Break it up into paddies and it would be some of the best burger known to man or.............just do it the way you did. "Yummy in the tummy!!"

Fantastic looking meatloaf!!! Meatloaf is just not the same to me after making it on the grill, IMO it is the only way to cook meatloaf!

 

[Tony R]

Delicious meal Jim... I like the picture of the path to your Pigvilion

 

[Mike Coffman]

Awesome meatloaf and sides Jim!

 

[Tim McCann]

Looks good Jim. I thought the pavilion had radiant floor heat?

 

[Gary McD]

That looks great Jim. Now you have me motivated, and tomorrow I'll do one too.

 

[Kim Drana]

I could use a plate of that tonite after plowing!

 

[J Pichey]

Looks great. Should help keep things warm with that darn white stuff everywhere.

Dang I want snow now!! Very nice Jim. Def on a roll !!

 

[Brian Dahl]

What do you call those spuds: Shotgun 'taters? Very nice pic of the path in the snow. Pictures like this make me miss the snow. The other pics aren't too bad, either.

Great looking meat loaf Jim...not sure if that qualifies as a snow storm thought!!

I had a very similar idea for dinner tonight but got veto'd...

 

[Eric Michaud]

Jim;
Good lookin' cook, my man!

Meatloaf is on my list although I'll probably do mine in the WSM. I really enjoy good meat loaf, and smoked should be even better.

That looks great and I could probably get my family to eat that even though they are anti-reg meatloaf eaters. Nice job!!

 

[Scott M]

Yes please.
Good lookin' loaf there Jim.

 

[Jim McKelvey]

Great pics and a perfect looking meatloaf Jim. My boys have been asking for one and you've reminded me how good it is when cooked on the grill.
