Yesterday for dinner I had a meatloaf, roasted red potatoes on the Treager & did scalloped corn in the oven. The meatloaf was a variation of Paula Deen's cheeseburger meatloaf. I wanted some leftovers for the grandson, & could not put any mushrooms in it. I chopped some very fine for the quiche I made the other day thinking he would not know they were in it. Wouldn't you know he found them in there & did not eat very well! I put the meatloaf in the smoker at 250 deg & shortly added red potatoes w/olive oil, garlic, & Lawrey's seasoned salt, no MSG. The potatoes are in a basket my wife got me from Pampered Chef & I added some parmesan cheese near the end & poured some BBQ sauce on the meatloaf. I upped the smoker to 350deg for the last 20 min. One hour & 45 min. the meatloaf was at 150 deg. I tented it w/foil for about 10 min. before slicing & serving.

There are not many blogs out there dedicated to cooking on a pellet smoker. I have been cooking, grilling & smoking over 35 yrs now. I recently bought a Traeger Lil Tex Elite pellet smoker & have cooked on it over six yrs. now. I would like to share recipes & info I have gained from cooking on it. Update 2014: I have plenty of recipes here for the pellet smoker so I am now including other outdoor cooking and some of my indoor cooking too.
Don, the only thing missing from your recipe for cheesy meatloaf is the cheese
