serveringsstørrelse 4 people

Ingredienser
  

  • 1½ pounds ground beef
  • 4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup finely diced yellow onion
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 1½ pounds baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • ¼ cup Buffalo-style hot sauce
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Preheat a smoker to 250°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, or prepare a grill-safe pan for the meatloaf.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, blue cheese, crumbled bacon, panko, egg, diced onion, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined, taking care not to compact the meat.
  • Shape the mixture into a loaf on the prepared pan. Stir the ketchup and yellow mustard together in a small bowl, then spread the mixture over the top and sides of the loaf.
  • Place the meatloaf in the smoker and cook until its center reaches 160°F, checking with an instant-read thermometer. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  • While the meatloaf smokes, heat the oven to 425°F. Toss the halved potatoes with the melted butter and Buffalo-style hot sauce, then spread them cut-side down on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Roast the potatoes until tender inside and browned at the edges, turning them once during cooking. Sprinkle with the chopped chives just before serving.
  • Slice the rested meatloaf and serve with the Buffalo-roasted potatoes.

merknader

Keep the meat mixture loosely packed so the loaf stays tender, and crumble the blue cheese evenly for flavor in each slice. For milder potatoes, reduce the Buffalo-style hot sauce and coat them with the remaining amount of melted butter.
