Sunday Cooking

We had a hankering for meatloaf today, but we didn't want your standard, workaday meatloaf.  So, we took five pounds o good ground meat, added bell pepper, onion, bell pepper, onion, bread crumbs and tomato paste  We mixed the meat well and let it sit while we did our other preps.

We lined a cookie sheet with parchment paper and laid bacon out across it.  Then added a layer of the ground beef mixture.  Then, we got in the fridge and found some partial bags of grated cheese,  Mexican, and sharp cheddar, I believe.  We put the cheese on top, the wit the help of the paper, rolled the whole thing into a loaf.

I set the smoker on 300F, added a handful of wood chips, and put the meatloaf in the smoker.  Two hours later, I found this.

The family came over at noon, and w served it with beans and tater salad.

Ain't enough leftovers to make a good sandwich.
