Barbecued Meat Loaf

Meat Loaf

  • Completed step 570 grams ground chuck (80% lean)
  • Completed step 570 grams ground pork
  • Completed step 70 grams panko bread crumbs
  • Completed step 120 grams finely chopped yellow onion
  • Completed step 1 large egg, beaten
  • Completed step 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Completed step 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • Completed step 1 teaspoon dried tarragon
  • Completed step 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Completed step 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Sauce

  • Completed step 120 millilitres store-bought barbecue sauce
  • Completed step 60 millilitres ketchup
 
  • Completed step Sliced provolone cheese (optional)
  • Completed step Sliced sourdough bread (optional)

Special Equipment

  • Instant-Read Thermometer

Instructions

  • In a large bowl using your hands, gently combine the meat loaf ingredients.
  • Divide the meat loaf mixture in half and form into two loaves, each about 10 centimetres wide and 15 to 17 centimetres long. Place the loaves on a sheet pan. 
  • Prepare the grill for indirect cooking over medium–low heat (about 180ºC).
  • In a small bowl mix the sauce ingredients. Set aside half of the sauce to serve with the meat loaf. Top each meat loaf with 3 tablespoons of the remaining sauce and coat thoroughly.
  • Using a metal spatula, gently pick up each loaf from the sheet pan and place directly on the cooking grate. Grill the meat loaves over indirect medium–low heat, with the lid closed, until a thermometer inserted into the centre of each loaf registers 68ºC, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Remove the loaves from the grill and let rest 10 to 15 minutes. Once removed from the grill, the loaves will continue to cook, allowing them to reach the recommended 74ºC for ground beef and pork. Cut the loaves into slices and serve with the reserved sauce.
  • To make meat loaf sandwiches: Cut the meat loaf into slices about 1 centimetre thick and slather both sides with some of the reserved sauce. Grill over direct low heat (120ºC to 180ºC), with the lid closed, for 4 to 6 minutes, turning once. If you wish, during the last minute of grilling time, top each with a slice of provolone cheese to melt. Serve on sourdough bread.
