Instructions

1. Sauté the Onions
   • In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 stick of salted butter
   • Add ½ cup of chopped white onion and sauté until softened and translucent. Set aside

2. Mix the Base
   • In a large mixing bowl, combine:
     • 1 whole can of Cream of Chicken Soup
     • 1 cup of Sour Cream
     • 1 tsp of Garlic Powder
     • ½ tsp Salt, mix well
   • Stir until smooth
   • Add the sautéd onions and melted butter to the bowl, and mix well.

3. Add Potatoes & Cheese
   • Add 30oz of Shredded Hashbrowns, preferably thawed. If frozen, that’s OK, it’ll just need about 15 extra minutes of cook time.
   • Add 2 cups of Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese (or cheese of your choice)
   • Stir well, folding your wet mixture into your cheese and potatoes until everything is evenly coated.

4. Cook your meatloaf
   • Preheat your smoker or oven to 350° F
   • Spray a 9×13” baking dish with non-stick spray (you’ll thank us later!)
   • Spread your potato mixture evenly into the dish
   • Top with:
     • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
     • 1/2-1 cup Panko bread crumbs
     • A generous dusting of our Smoke ’n Magic Rib Rub for some extra color and flavor
5. Bake
   • Bake uncovered at 350° F for 45-55 minutes until hot and bubbly with a golden brown topping.
   • Let cool slightly, then garnish with green onions or chives before serving.
