Simple Slow Cooked Meatloaf

"Great grub isn't rushed, frozen or processed - it's made with heart."

Everything about this meatloaf recipe reminds me of my grandmother's house.  If there was ever a candle named "Grandma's Home Cooking," it would be the exact smell of this delicious meatloaf cooking, for sure. 

Let's not waste anytime!  Grab some grass-fed beef at your local grocery store, and get ready to taste the moistest and most tastiest meatloaf of your life!  Seriously though, this recipe is a keeper. 

We served ours with a homemade lentil noodle mac-n-cheese with some chopped steamed kale and broccoli thrown in for some veggie pleasure!
