BBQ Meatloaf Smoked On The Weber Kettle

When it’s too hot to fire up the oven inside, but I still want a delicious Meatloaf, I fire up the Weber Kettle and mix up a batch of ground beef with amazing extras and give it a smoke with some Olive Wood. Topping it with strips of Prosciutto and a Homemade BBQ Sauce is the perfect way to finish off this satisfying meal.

Just can't beat American cooking, thanks mate will give this a go. Thank God Australia has such great cousins.

[@chriswunsch2672]

Nothing better than a cold meatloaf sandwich!!

[@GreenhornBBQbeer]

Meatloaf is one of those special dishes isnt it? Great job! Cheers!

[@CookingWithRy]

Thank you :)

[@darienhurdsr787]

Thanks to you RY I bought the same kettle as yours the other day and I love it and your recipes!

[@ride0641]

Smoked meatloaf is a regular in our house. Love your idea of the mushrooms. Since the meatloafs freeze so well, I normally make two at a time. A thick slice blackened in a cast iron pan just adds to the taste and texture. Thanks for the video.

[@operator2904]

Great looking meatloaf! I definitely need to try this one! Thanks for sharing!!! 👍🏻

[@papacsbbqkitchen2668]

That looks so good. Definitely need to do some meatloaf on my kettle!

Looks amazing Ry!!! Gonna add this to my list to cook!!!

[@Fullnelsonbbq2020]

Love meatloaf and that’s a new way making meatloaf for me. Going to try this recipe soon. Thanks for sharing

[@CookingWithRy]

With Ry at the helm... EVERYTHING looks delicious... Before it's even cooked! Thanks for this one!

[@bks7842]

Nice. Been contemplating doing a meatloaf. I was assuming I would do it in a pan, but NOT NOW!

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Nice cook Ry! I did this in a cook with Harry Soo and T-Roy a little while back. It is a great recipe and fun cook. I eventually ended up shooting the video for it on my channel as well. Gotta love smoked meatloaf!!!

[@CookingWithRy]

Oh yeah it's good stuff!

[@PicklesBBQandCooking]

That’s a great recipe Ry! I grew up not liking meatloaf until I made them about the same as this, definitely mushrooms are key and that prosciutto! Perfecto!

[@CookingWithRy]

I know, those mushrooms give it so much flavor and texture :)

[@ganesha2933]

Olive smoke is just amazing! To me is the best wood for a earthy meatloaf.

Yeah it’s so good on beef :)

Yeah mushrooms work so well in so many things :)

[@mahkymaaahk1713]

Dude. I already had dinner AND dessert. Just smoked a chicken on my Pit Boss. I’m so full right now, but my mouth is WATERING for this meatloaf!!!! Great videos my man. Two videos of yours, and I subscribed. 👍🏻

[@CookingWithRy]

Hey thanks so much!

[@joeymerrell8585]

This is an excellent recipe. For those that dont like the texture of the veggies(my wife), here's a tip. Saute them for a good long while in butter or olive oil until completely softened low and slow until you can easily crush with a finger. Then add to your meat, they will add all the flavor, and most wont even be able to tell they are in the loaf, or any other dish unless they see them. Keep em coming Ry!

[@CookingWithRy]

Good tip!

[@colinbutler2552]

Great Job Ry.... Iv played around with this before. Iv taken oven cooked meatloaf ( at 150 degrees ) and transfered it to the flaming grill to put a crust on it , and it was Fantastic !! Now, Thanks to you, Im inspired to do the whole cook out there. ! Thank you.

[@CookingWithRy]

It’s very good :)

[@Nelc0]

Tryout on this for Fathers Day, was soo good. Thanks Ry

[@CookingWithRy]

Awesome!

[@pdowney71]

I saw this video yesterday and it inspired me to give it a try today. Mine was pretty close to the same recipe you used except I used a 2/1 mix of ground beef to ground spicy Italian sausage. Oh my goodness! It came out great!!! Thanks for the inspiration Ry!!

[@CookingWithRy]

I like that mix with Italian Sausage!

[@mandh14]

Totally underrated channel, absolutely superb recipes, smoking tips and an all round nice chap! Keep it up my man.

Meatloaf looked great. I cook meatloaf on the kettle all the time and did a bacon wrap also.

[@CookingWithRy]

I know, that's so good on the kettle :)

[@Gator805]

Just pulled this off my smoker. Only difference is I wrapped it in bacon. I also made some smoked whole potato's on the top rack at the same time. Fantastic!! Happy 4th of July.

[@CookingWithRy]

That sounds like a great meal!

[@evolution5773]

music is setting the mood

[@CookingWithRy]

I can’t help it! LOL :)

[@THEREALSHOWBBQ]

That's one good looking meatloaf bro. Great idea with the mushrooms and prosciutto. Have you ever tried adding boiled eggs? Basically have a layer of the meat, then add eggs on top end to end, then add the rest of the meat on top and seal with bottom.

[@CookingWithRy]

I’ve never thought of boiled eggs. Interesting idea!

Hmmmmmm, now I've got to make a shopping list!

[@brittsbackyardbbqngrill]

Great cook Ry... I will have to do a meatloaf on the weber. I have family coming in next weekend and they have already requested BBQ meatloaf as they have never had it that way before. I could tell the loaf was not dry but I really liked the "Loaf" look it had. I mean it is called meatloaf. I have seen vids the as you say they had a "juice alance" but they also fell apart. Kinda the way we like our ribs> with a little tug, I also want a loaf. Taking one from you for tomorrow> burger dogs are formed and sitting in the fridge waiting for the weber kettle. Great vid as always and have a Happy Fathers Day...

[@CookingWithRy]

Happy Fathers Day to you, too!

[@WeekendWarriorBBQ]

Amazing meatloaf, Ry! Donna has been begging me to make one in the new smoker... we just watched this video on our Roku and she is giving me that look. Lol. Thanks for the inspiration

[@CookingWithRy]

Fire that bad boy up and give her what she wants :)

[@RobertKohut]

Nice!!

[@CookingWithRy]

It’s so good 😊

[@burtenplays]

Got a remote thermometer after watching your vids and it's one of my new favorite things. Ingenious, didn't even know those where a thing. Never really used meat thermometers before at all but man the jump from no temp readings to having it at my desk is almost mind blowing.

[@CookingWithRy]

It is pretty nice to not have to guess :)

[@burtenplays]

@@CookingWithRy Also amazing for Florida weather when it's 98° and super humid. It rained twice during my first smoke on my first butt roast 11hrs on the Weber kettle and was able to leave the main unit under the grill and stay dry inside. Also thanks for showing how to smoke on the kettle which I also didn't know was a thing, after watching a couple vids I can do anything now..... ANYTHING! I smoked a 6lb chicken which was some of the best chicken I've ever had. Thanks again!

[@CookingWithRy]

@@burtenplays Yeah the Kettle is my favorite cooker :)

They will when they grow up :)

Looks great Ry, but tonight's dinner is taken care of : your brined, injected and rubbed chook ( spatchcocked too ). That is the best chook I have had. Meatloaf will be next : ) Thanks.

[@CookingWithRy]

Awesome!

[@handcannon1388]

I've been meaning to try smoked meatloaf. My meatloaves usually weigh around eight pounds. I'm thinking lower pit temp. and more time to absorb smoke flavor. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@CookingWithRy]

Good plan :)

I mixed in some chorizo in my meat mixture added peppers turned out great

[@sipzter]

Wow looks delish!!! I just bought the Thermo Smoke. On this cook with the meatloaf, where did you place the grill thermostat? It almost sounded like you had it down where the coals and drip pan were? Thanks for all you do!

[@CookingWithRy]

It was near the edge of the cooking grate. You can kind of see it at the top of one of the first kettle shots :)

[@mariosavva999]

Hi Ry Great video as usual! I have a question...when using your torch to light the coals as you did in this video, do you just light 1 briquette and let the rest catch? Thanks!

[@CookingWithRy]

I usually light several and let them spread for a while.

[@t0ej0b]

Looks good! I use 2lb of ground chuck and 1lb of sausage with a mixture of 2/3 bbq sauce and 1/3 apple juice. Gonna have to try the mushrooms! I use a pellet grill now though so it’s just easy cheating.

[@CookingWithRy]

LOL. Nothing wrong with a pellet :)

Cut my teeth on a dome smoker, moved on to wood fire in an offset, then I got lazy. Now it’s all prep and turn a knob and wait.

Hey Ry! I would like to make this for six people tonight. I don’t have olive wood, but I do have apple, post oak, and hickory. Would any of those work or should I be sure to use olive?

[@Zerzil1974]

I see you're using briquettes, but I perfer charcoal lumps. I'm not sure why - I don't know enough to say why ... is there a difference?

[@CookingWithRy]

I prefer briquettes because they burn at a more uniform rate due to the uniform size. I'll use lump for direct grilling sometimes :)

[@mrbigshot29]

a normal sized briquette is sized to burn for one hour so it's convenient to use, your supposed to get the same heat for the same time but I don't know anyone outside of snake users that worry about that. lump is generally hotter burning because of the big pieces. for me, I use briquettes for about most cooks under 300 degrees (portex will run 400-500 on briquettes). hot n fast brisket, ribs, or pork butt on my wsm ill use lump and put a pebble in the lid to allow temps to run up to 400.

[@reillybuehl4413]

I still have never had meat loaf

[@josebustos6999]

BlueGazelle44 same here.

[@SailingSquidBoy]

Ry - You have the Right Idea; but the long cooking time makes the sugar in every part (Sauce, etc.) burn during the cook if you apply as early as you have. I like this approach you have, but before Marinade, etc. - Get Smoke into the Raw Meat Loaf - > - and then finish with Bacon towards the end, with a Final Mop of Sauce to Caramelize it all just prior to pulling it off to Rest...Rest It To Pull In Juices to Meat Product...and then Carve for Banquet & Presentation.

[@CookingWithRy]

I’ve never had an issue with burning.

[@brianconner2101]

Close enough ;)

[@fluphenazine1879]

Looks Great but 165 is Government BS. I've never had a problem pulling my meatloaf off at 140 to 145. Some Traditionalists think 140 is overcooked as well as they pull it off at 130 or so.
