Title: Meat Loaf dinner
Post by: Roget on September 20, 2017, 10:45:25 AM

I tried a new meat loaf recipe last night.
It was totally different from what I usually make, but it turned out very good.

I put the prepared mixture in two loaf pans & put it in the fridge over night to let the ingredients marry.

I basted the loaves with ketchup and smoked them with oak @ 225° for 2 hours .

I basted with ketchup again & raised the temp to 250°, then finished to an IT of 165° (about an additional 2 hours)

Plated with mashed taters, peas, & homemade white bread, (and iced tea, of coarse)

Turned out very light and moist. It really soaked up the gravy. :) :)
I will use this recipe again, even though it is pretty time consuming.

i would clean that plate right up and use the bread to make sure there was no goodness remaining.

How about sharing that recipe??  :)

Oh, that looks good!
But if I tried to take over the meatloaf in this house... Well, let's just say that things would get ugly.
