We've all had meatloaf, but I promise you... you haven't had it like THIS. It's like an all-star team of flavor up at bat for you here. From the GOAT Carvers Prime, our Spiced Burgundy Wine Marinade and then followed up by the grand slam champion, our BACON KETCHUP aka Papa Bard's Pride & Joy... this meatloaf will have you rethinking the whole thing. 10/10 flavor and aroma from this bad boy. Give it a try!
