'Ol Man Jim'S Smoked Meat Loaf

• 2 lbs ground chuck
• 1 lb ground pork
• 1 lb ground veal
• 1 large onion, minced
• 1 bell pepper, minced
• 8 ounces Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
• 1 ounce cajun your favorite barbecue rub
• 1 teaspoon thyme
• 1 teaspoon sage
• 3 large eggs, beaten
• 1/8 cup danny's glaze
• 1/8 cup sesame oil
• 1/4 cup glaze, for topping
• danny's glaze
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/8 cup apple cider vinegar
• 1/8 cup prepared yellow mustard

1. Preparing Danny's Glaze: Add ingredients to a small pot and simmer (DO NOT BOIL).
2. Meat Loaf: Thoroughly hand mix all ingredients (except topping glaze) and form into a large freeform, rectangular loaf. Place loaf onto trimmed parchment paper to fit and place into a 275 F pit. This allows the grease to drain away, and allows a nice smoke ring all around the finished product.
3. At an internal temperature of about 100F, score the top of the meatloaf in a diamond pattern and apply a layer of Danny's glaze, then continue cooking to a finished internal temperature of 160-165u0b0F It will take roughly about 2 hours to reach this temperature, depending on the thickness of the meat loaf. Remove from pit, brush on some more of Danny's Glaze, tent loosely with foil and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
4. It's important to note that ground meat absorbs much more smoke flavor than a solid cut of meat, so go easy on the smoke wood. I use only a couple chunks of applewood for the smoke flavor. You've been warned!
