Those look really good Jim. I bet they had great flavor.

thanks, they did,

i used the dried minced onions vs fresh ones in the mix to cut down on additional moisture in the loaf, and to allow it to be more dense. seemed to work out well.

 

[bmudd14474]

Did you use the minced for the texture? or do you think normal onion powder would work too?

 

[chisoxjim]

I wanted the little pieces of rehydrated onion in the mix(love me some onions..

). In the past even with mincing fresh onion there could be gaps where the meatlaof wasnt as "tight". Seemed to work good.

I'd not done meatloaf in a pan before. I was very surprised the 80/20 mix didn't render more fat. I'm going back to a pan - it's a lot neater and cleanup should be a breeze.

yep just tossed the pans when I was done(a couple got bent up a little), I was worried Id get all 3 in the WSM, but it worked.
