I had also ate a brisket meatloaf sammie a while back and decided to combine the two.

I took a 12 1/2 lb brisket and leaned it out. I got 8 1/2lbs of meat. I added 1 1/2lbs

of fat back to it to give me roughtly a 80/20 ratio. Gave it a course grind, mixed it up,

and then a medium grind. Then I followed the rest of the recipe.

One of the things mentioned in the link is that sometimes the meatloaf doesn't stay

together so I put mine in loaf pans and into the freezer for a short ride.





Also did a 4lb chuck roast for chop beef with Wild Willy's Rub and a mustard brushing.



And Boudain for the "Boudain Queens"



Used 3 hrs of Pecan and set the temp at 240*



After the pans came off.



The Boudain came off first and quality control ate a few.

8.5 pounds of lean meat with 1.5 pounds of fat for an 80/20 ratio?   I think you and I had the same math teacher.

I love the creativity, and smoked brisket meatloaf sounds fantastic!

I hammered on that meatloaf again today for lunch! I think it taste better today and last nite

fresh off the smoker, it was great.

;D I took into account the fat in the brisket lean itself.

Did you use ground beef or brisket?

I feel so inadequate compared to this monkey.  Please reset my star level back to one star.

Snelly, I ground up a Brisket and then follow the recipe. I mixed 1 1/4 lb of ground brisket with

1/4 lb of fresh ground pork.

I sauteed the onions, bell peppers, minced garlic in strained bacon grease. After it has cooled down

I mixed the rest of the wet liquids in the sautee pan along with rest of the spices. I used crutons, but

smashed them and added them to the pan. Pour that on top of the brisket/pork and hand mixed it all.
