Grilled Meatloaf

Submitted by Gunslinger

"I got the original recipe for this from a friend in a chat room I frequent. I added the greenpepper, garlic and worcestershire to it. I also substituted 1/2 pound of Jimmy Deans hot pork sausage for a 1/2 pound of ground beef and cooked it for 1 1/2 hours. While I had the grill fired up I also grilled some potatoe slices and roasted some corn on the cob to go with it."

This was a fabulous recipe. Wonderful flavors. My picky 3 year old even gobbled it up. Thanks for sharing. I didnt have mushrooms or green pepper on hand, and used shredded carrots and celery instead. Also instead of rolling up the meat into the meatloaf, we flattened them into large rectangular burgers, and then just brushed them with the sauce mixture occasionally. My husband and I loved them, and decided it would be a great item to serve to guests.

This is the hardest meatload EVER to make. It falls apart very easily.The directions are also very confusing. You also have to transfer it from wax paper to tinfoil. Well guess what? The waxpaper is too soggy from the meat to transfer without the meat loaf falling apart. If you want an easy dinner, then DON'T MAKE THIS RECIPE!!
