Cheesecake Factory Meatloaf
This was pretty fabulous. However, I didn't have all the ingredients. I used 3lbs of ground beef instead of the 2 lbs of beef, sausage, and lamb mixture (which I do want to try). I also did not add wine, because that would mean finishing a bottle and this meal was already heavy enough with the meatloaf, Chef John's Perfect Mashed Potatoes, and KFC Cole Slaw.
Be forewarned, if you prepare a meal like I did above, you will be in a coma for days. Enjoy!
