Not sure why I have not done this on the Egg before now because it was excellent!

Hamburger
Catalina Salad Dressing
Eggs
Onions
Bread Crumbs
Salt, Pepper, garlic etc...

Mix all together and for a loaf, cook indirect on foil paper to catch fat.

On the grill:
Meat Loaf

Ready to eat:

Thank you for looking.

    Great looking meal. Maybe some fish sauce next time?

    Yum!
    How did you lift them off the grill grate without the foil bending and spilling grease anywhere?

    Have not tried fish sauce yet ... been looking for 3 crab (recommended on these forums) but no luck. Not sure who sells it in Canada.

    To take off the without spilling grease I carefully lifted with a pizza spatula.

    Forgot to mention, that to form the loaf I just filled a plastic container and them flipped and emptied to form the loaf.

    How much do they weigh? How long did you cook them and at what temp? Looks great!

    bcdon -> Not sure on weight, always cook by temperature. I believe it was 77C (170F). Did not take very long, was not paying attention to time, maybe under an hour. They are probably about 2-3 inches thick.

    Great questions everyone ... I will try to be a little more detailed next time.

    I haven't tried meat loaf on the egg. I have to add that to my list. The best part about making meatloaf is the leftover meatloaf sandwiches. Sour doug or ciabatta bread with some cheddar, a slice of tomato and some Thomas sauce. Mmmm mmm, they are tasty.

  • I Egg meat loaf often, one of my wife's faves. I cook at 350 dome indirect with a drip pan on spacers under meat loaf on cooking grate, pull at 155 internal. Works very well.

    That looks eggcellent! Egged meatloaf is the best. I'll never cook one in the oven again. Thanks for sharing.

    Well they look delicious!  Catalina Salad dressing would never have crossed my mind... Was it a prominent flavor or did it just add to the overall moisture of the meatloaf?

    I'd try that!

    RE: Egg Juju - Catalina Salad Dressing

    Not sure, this is my wife's familly recipe, probably adds to the moister, once cooked you do not even taste it (As long as you do not use too much)
