Ingredients

2 eggs
1 lb ground beef
1 lb ground pork
8 slices bacon cooked and chopped
½ cup Italian Panko bread crumbs
¼ cup milk
1 tsp seasoned salt
1 tsp garlic powder
¼ cup yellow onion chopped
¼ tsp ground black pepper
2 cups cheddar cheese shredded

Instructions

Preheat your smoker pellet smoker to 325 degrees. Prepare an aluminum foil boat and place it on a metal wire cooling rack or use a half-sized aluminum pan if you prefer.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs together.
Add in the beef, pork, bacon, bread crumbs, milk, onion, and seasonings. Mix together. I like to use disposable food-safe gloves and mix it by hand. Then add the cheese and mix in. Be careful not to overmix it.
Form the meat mixture into a large loaf. Place the loaf on the prepared foil boat or in an aluminum half sized pan. Set aside.
When ready to smoke, place the metal cool rack with the meatloaf on in right on the grill grate.
Smoke the meatloaf at 325 degrees for 1 1/2 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
Allow the meatloaf to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
