First Meatloaf on the Egg

Options
I am trying my first meatloaf on my XL. Went with Italian seasonings. Doing an inderect cook. Made the mistake of not putting the plate setter on when getting up to temp so now the egg is working to warm it up too. Started at 55° internal 20 minutes ago and is at 91° now. Egg at 340.

    Are you cooking right on the grill? I first did a meatloaf in a loaf foil pan. The second time right on the grill. On the grill is by far the best. Good smoke ring all around. Also used a drip pan the second time after the mess from drippings.

    Agreed. Don't think I've ever used a loaf pan. Indirect with drip pan.

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Here are some before and after shots. It was awesome, but my son ate to much string cheese and said he wasn't hungry. He wanted me to cook it on the old beat up gasser. My wife liked it and said we need to take some to her parents, which we will.
