Craig has finished all the seafood, so I'll freeze the rest of the stew mix and have a freebie meal later on. Had to make a couple of adjustments in the original recipe, but it was PDG. we'll be having mussels as some kind of appy or entree tomorrow since we had to buy a whole bag of them.
Looks delish! Even if I don't know what those oval/round things on the side are.
Got my new Cameron stove top smoker. Will try it out with salmon filets.
I keep saying I'm going to smoke some salmon but haven't gotten around to it yet. Let us know how it goes!
And someone else said they were smoking some meatloaf? Never thought of that... what a wonderful idea! went back but couldn't find the post, is it on a Weber or a Cameron style smoker? Please give us some details, for example how long, how did you finish it off, etc...
hmmm... mussels, getting a craving!

My son etal, will be passing thru on his way home from the cottage tomorrow. So for their lunch, I bought some store made sausages with herbs, pannini style buns, will cook them up with onions and sweet red peppers, toasting the buns.
I did a taste/test run on the griddle (was too lazy to cart it all out to the grill.
) OMG.. really good, 5 minute boil, finish on the griddle, started the onions and peppers on the griddle but then threw them in the water when I took the sausage out, just to soften them up some more. Used the weighted press/lid on top of both the sausage, bun, vegies. Finally spit the sausage down the middle and pressed it some more.
Stuffed the bun and then stuffed my mouth. DELISH! glad I'm going to get to have it again tomorrow for lunch!
Think I will actually do it on the griddle again tomorrow rather than the grill.

I am smoking the meatloaf, on a Weber kettle charcoal grill, indirect, with some hickory chunks for smoke. I aim for around 350-375 on the grill temp, so it is more of a "hot and fast" smoke. I'll try to remember to snap a picture when the meat is on the grill showing the setup. It takes a little over an hour to cook, generally. I use a probe thermometer to know when it is cooked through. Ground meat is a sponge for smoke, so it doesn't take a lot, or a long time to get a smokey flavor.
I have finished it with a glaze before, but generally don't. If I serve it with mashed potatoes, I'll make a simple gravy, perhaps with some shrooms, to go on both. Tonight, I think a gravy on the meat would clash with my spicy potato salad.
The first time I smoked a meatloaf, it totally changed my mind about meatloaf. That is the only way I make it, now.

I have been using this bloggers Shanghai scallion pancakes recipe for some time now... Today I was emailed the waffle recipe.. It is great.. I've frozen 4 waffles and because I like sweet and savory, I will try one with butter and maple syrup one day soon...

I first had smoked meatloaf when we attended a county fair in Missouri.. It was amazingly good.. I duplicated at home and it was almost as good as the original.. I wish I could smoke it now but, apartment living got in the way.. Perhaps I should get a stove top smoker..

Lazy day today. We had grilled kielbasa, crispy roasted red potatoes with garlic and assorted other seasonings, sliced fresh tomatoes, iced tea and chocolate chip cookies for dessert. Filled us up to the top.

MsM, your glazed meatloaf and the gravy for the mashies looks SO good!
Casey, the smoked meatloaf sounds wonderful. I'd love to give it a try. Would love to see pics if you can.
Dragn...sounds good, have a nice visit with your son and fam!
Ross, I checked out the link you posted for the scallion waffles. Oh, my - sounds and looks delish. Even though this is a little different, it sort of reminded me to look up the following thread that Kayelle started several years back. This might be something you and Jeannie would like. Now my taste buds are wanting Egg Foo Yung again. (however you want to spell it, haha...it's good!)

I made some pizza dough yesterday (enough for 5 pies), so I grabbed one and flattened it out in the sheetpan and made a pizza. It had pepperoni and peppers and of course sauce and cheese. Served with a simple salad. I had a pint of Rolling Rock beer with it.

- Alder smoked salmon
- Rosemary roasted potatoes
- Zucchini
Feeling better now, I hope?
We had Linda's Pot o' Pig, with boiled potatoes and a vegi salad with chickpeas. Served it with a Spanish rosé wine. It was really, really good. I shoulda taken pix.

Italian sausages/bell peppers/onions saute. Leftover noodles fried in butter and seasoned with Italian seasoning mix and granulated garlic. Corn off the cob, because two ears followed Himself home when he ran to the corner store to redeem all our pop bottles and cans and buy a couple bottles of flavored seltzer. Cantaloupe and ice cream for dessert. The fridge is getting emptier and emptier...
