Preparation

Step 1

Add wood chunks, chips, pellets or charcoal to smoker according to manufacturer's instructions. Preheat smoker to 350°F.
Step 2

Combine Ground Beef, bread crumbs, 1/2 cup barbecue sauce, onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, thyme, pepper and salt in large bowl, mixing lightly but thoroughly. Shape beef into a 10x5-inch loaf and place on smoker rack.

Cooking Tip: Meatloaf should be about 2-inches thick for even cooking.
Step 3

Smoke 60 to 80 minutes depending on desired smoke flavor. Brush with remaining 1/2 cup barbecue sauce. Smoke 10 minutes more or until instant-read thermometer inserted into center registers 160°F.

Cooking Tip: Cooking times are for fresh or thoroughly thawed ground beef. Ground beef should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. Color is not a reliable indicator of ground beef doneness.
Step 4

Carefully remove meatloaf from smoker. Let stand 10 minutes. Cut into slices.
Cheddar Jalapeno Variation: Prepare recipe as directed above, adding 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup chopped jalapeño.
