September Recipe - Smoked Meat

Mike’s Smoked Meatloaf

2 lbs lean ground beef
1 tblsp canola oil
1 lb  lean ground pork
½ cup minced onion
1 ½ cups bread crumbs
½ cup chopped green/red pepper
2 tblsp Worcestershire
3 cloves minced garlic
1 egg
1 teasp ground black pepper
¼ cup beef stock
1 teasp salt
1 teasp tobasco
½ teasp ground cumin

Warm the oil in a skillet over medium heat.  Add the pepper, salt, onion, bell pepper and cumin and sauté until the veggies are softened.  Put the veggies into a large bowl.  Add the rest of the meatloaf ingredients and mix well with your hands.  Then mound the meat into a metal loaf pan and season with Ultimate Steak and Roast rub.
Light your BGE and stabilize at 225 degrees.  Add smoking woods to the coals and put the meatloaf in the BGE.  All you do now is add more smoking woods (if you want to) and wait till it is time to eat.  I use Jack Daniel’s Barrel Chips for this and the result is amazing.  If you want to top the meatloaf with sauce, you can do so about 20 minutes before you take the meatloaf out of the BGE.   Enjoy!
