Picked up a few pounds of ground chuck on sale last week and yesterday decided to turn it into meatloaf. We followed (more or less) Jeff's recipe (found here: https://www.smoking-meat.com/october-6-2016-smoked-meatloaf-comfort-food ).
Set the MES to 140F on the PID controller and put the AMAZEN tray in the new mailbox mod with Todd's Pitmaster's Choice pellets.
After four hours the I/T was around 135F. Time was running short so we moved the loaves to the oven set at 350F to finish. Added a glaze near the end.
Money shot.
This is a really good recipe. SWMBO has even converted from her go-to version of 40 or more years. It was only the second smoke with the mailbox and I couldn't be happier with the way it works. Looking forward to meatloaf sammies this evening and having a bunch of portions in the freezer for easy and yummy meals in the future.
