Garden Peas, Meat Loaf and Potato Scallop Dinner

[MacKenzie]

This meat loaf looks more like a fattie than meatloaf but it worked great on the grill without being in a dish. I used plastic wrap rolled the meat into a loaf and twisted the ends of the plastic wrap to get this shape.

Remember the meat that I ground last week, well here it is again, on the 400F KK until internal temp. was 154F.

Meat loaf is done.

 

Potato scallop.

My garden peas.

Sliced.

Plated. Those fresh peas are so tender and sweet, no way was I going to cook them.

Here you go.  

 

Meatloaf:

Sauté:

1 yellow onion, diced

1/2 green bell pepper, diced (I skipped this.)

When the onions are soft and translucent add:

4 cloves of minced garlic

Continue with the heat until the garlic is fragrant

Add:

1/4 cup ketchup or barbecue sauce

1 tablespoon tomato paste

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon sea or kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon fresh black pepper

Continue to cook about 5 mins on low heat then allow to cool.

To 1 egg beaten add the following ingredients:

1 + 1/4 pounds ground beef, 85% lean or ground turkey

1/3 cup bread crumbs

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

cooled sauce mixture from above

Roll into a log. I wrapped it in saran wrap and twisted the ends to tighten things up. Set it in the fridge for a period of time.

Cook at 400F until IT is 160F.

I wasn't too worried about the internal temp as this was not store bought ground meat.

Mac one more great meal! It must be nice with all those fresh veggies 

[MacKenzie]

Bruce, thanks, and this is just the beginning of the fresh from the garden stuff. Yellow beans are next, and how I love those things. You will see them for breakfast soon.

I just used that to keep the meatloaf in place and it allows the smoke to come through for flavour. I've had that one for a long time, it is stainless steel and I can't find it in the stores now.

That is a dream meal!

You can always use a Frog Mat if you can't find the stainless steel mats. They are good for up to 400 F. I've owned one for many years and it does come in handy, especially for doing Baconators (aka Fatties).
