Ingredients
1 Yellowstone Dutton Family BBQ Meatloaf & Mash (frozen)

Optional Add-Ons & Extras:
Extra BBQ sauce for a bolder flavor
Cracked black pepper or smoked paprika for added depth
Chopped fresh parsley or green onions for garnish

Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer
Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes. This ensures even heating while keeping the meatloaf juicy.
Step 2: Prepare the Frozen Meal
Remove the meal from the box and plastic film, keeping the food inside its tray.
Separate the meatloaf from the mashed potatoes to ensure even cooking. Place the meatloaf directly in the air fryer basket.
Cover the mashed potatoes with foil to prevent them from drying out.
Step 3: Air Fry the Meatloaf & Mash
Meatloaf Only: Cook at 375°F for 14-16 minutes, flipping halfway through for even heating.
Mashed Potatoes: After 6 minutes of cooking, place the mashed potatoes in the air fryer on a small air fryer-safe dish and continue cooking for another 6-8 minutes until fully heated.
Caramelized BBQ Glaze: In the last 2 minutes of cooking, brush the meatloaf with extra BBQ sauce for a rich, caramelized finish.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
Carefully remove the meatloaf and mashed potatoes from the air fryer and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before eating.
Serve immediately with extra BBQ sauce, fresh herbs, or black pepper for added flavor.
How to Serve This BBQ Meatloaf & Mash
Classic Homestyle Plate: Serve with buttered corn or roasted green beans.
Savory Boost: Drizzle with gravy or extra BBQ sauce.
Spicy Kick: Add hot sauce or chipotle seasoning.
Pro Tips for Best Results
Flip the meatloaf halfway through cooking for even heating.
Cover the mashed potatoes with foil so they don’t overcook before the meatloaf is done.
For extra caramelization, brush with BBQ sauce and cook an additional 2 minutes at 400°F.
Want extra flavor? Sprinkle with garlic powder, black pepper, or smoked paprika before air frying.
