I made this today. It was wonderful. I think I will increase the time uncovered for a little more smoke but I will definitely make this again. I couldn’t find a Fresno chili 🌶 so I just added a couple more chipotle pepper in the food processer with the carrot onion and garlic. The glaze is so good. I smoked it in my Smokin it 2 smoker just like Alton’s. A definite keeper going into my recipe file. 👍👍👍 This glaze is so good I was saying to my husband it’s a shame you can’t have some in each bite. He said flatten the meat out on a half sheet pan with plastic wrap flatten it all out and glaze then roll it like a jelly roll and smoke it.

Well I just discovered what my next meal prep is going to consist of. Thank you Alton and Food Network!

Can confirm. Smoked meatloaf is freaking amazing. Except I wrap mine in bacon instead of foil and glaze it with my homemade BBQ sauce.

This was a great video and the meatloaf looks divine. The taste test at the end my favorite.

This video needs a refresh by the one and only Alton Brown. I know a new GOOD EATS has started but ALTON BROWNs clever way to explain and entertain has made many new cooks. Im not sure if FOOD NETWORK is not paying Alton well enough to make his show or if he just want to take a break, but if its FOOD NETWORK you really screwed the pooch.

POTATO CHIPS! I've been looking for a gluten-free alternative to bread crumbs for meatloaf. Alton goes and blows the lid off the game like always.

I love Alton, and Im sure he makes delicious food, however I just cant get behind wrapping the meatloaf in foil if its being smoked.

Alton's a better cook that I will ever be, but as someone who smokes meat once or twice a month I have trouble imagining he's getting much smoke flavor from a brief exposure of 1/4 of the meat to the smoke.

I dont like using a electric smoker for meat loaf. i use a side mount to get that smoke ring around the meat. also taste better.

Is it just me or did we never add the chip mix to the meat on camera? EDIT: Ah... The bottom of the bowl, neatly hidden away.

I'm surprised youtube still doesn't have an algorithm for detecting hard panned audio and offer to fix/automatically fix it. Or do they and they just didn't use it?

It seems to me that he is missing the chance to get the good smoke ring and flavor into the meat by keeping it covered early in the cook.

I personally refuse to put Onions in my Meatloaves because I'm not a fan of onions in most dishes. I do however add a little bit of onion powder, but I also absolutely positively add crushed up French's Fried Onions to my mixture as well as my burgers most of the time. I personally think that people out there that use straight up RAW Onion and toss it in their meatloaf mixture or any dish for that matter should be fined or not allowed to cook for 6 months. Lol
