mini meatloaf lunch
a couple of weeks ago i did one of my small batches of mini meatloafs
beef & pork
formed in a bowl and wrapped with a piece of bacon
we cooked two of them then, & i froze the other two
i got one out of the freezer this morning for my lunch
w/ skin on new potatoes - mashed
the sauce was bbq sauce & marinara
bbq roasted direct @8"on 1/3 chimney of coals with hickory in the OldSmokey
SOoo Very Good

Looks great Capt !
It seems as tho I was on a Constant diet of Meatloaf growing up as a kid and as I got older I couldn't even bear to look at one but these look really good and not oozing with Ketchup like alot of recipes do.

I bet that sauce goes great mixed with those taters

Haven't made much meatloaf. The traditional way here is in a "bread form" (I don't know if this is the English word) and in the oven.

The way you made them looks much more tempting and way better looking. This I will try. Well done.

you are correct Joe...
the wife uses bread to mix into the ground beef, I use crackers, she uses the oven I use the smoker, she uses a pan, I use frog matts she uses ketchup, I use bbq sauce, so there is variation to everything we do... :laughing7:

actually the true recipe calls for bread and milk mixed into a "panade"
it's to make the meatloaf less dense = works
the traditional cooking method is in a bread loaf pan in the oven
but the meatloaf sits in it's own rendered fat
I like it a whole lot better smoke roasted on the frogmat on the grill
it lets all the fat drip out
and i really like doing the individual bacon wrapped servings
i can cook the ones i need and freeze the other servings for later
the other day i made four minis and ate two the first meal
and then one for lunch - above
and still have one in the freezer for a future lunch
and there aren't any leftovers.....

Yeah. That's what I liked with the way you did it. That meatloaf in a bread loaf pan doesn't tempt me. It's something with the consistency they get in the pan. Just like you are saying.

Smoking them las small pucks with bacon around looks so much better.
