Pauler's Meatloaf.

Thank you to alert reader, Marilyn, of Foodies Untie blogdom, for sending me this clip. You must play the video and watch it to the end. As if butter-flavored lip balm were not enough, Pauler has branched out to a CLOTHING LINE now, which she announced on Leno's show. Of course Pauler has to cook something and she chooses meatloaf. This is not something I'd whip up without having a sink nearby to wash my hands. Note Pauler and Jay spend most of the time wiping their hands on kitchen towels to unsuccessfully get the raw meat off. Now, I loves me some meatloaf, but the crap Pauler served up on Leno would turn the most the most ardent meatloaf lover into a vegetarian. Please watch the clip, if you can sit through it, and notice that first Pauler tells us the white bread serves "to bind" the meatloaf (when the meatloaf is sitting on top of the bread), then she tells us it's to "collect the grease." (I don't have a problem with just dumping out my grease. I don't need to "collect" it.)
Naturally, Pauler does her requisite shtick about "how pretty your meat looks" to which Leno responds with a thank you. Pauler very messily plates her loaf then pours a particularly gagtastic cheese sauce over top. Note: I actually saw this meatloaf with sauce at Pauler's buffet at her restaurant in Harrah's Cherokee. I was not impressed. The most telling and truthful part of the whole video is at the very end when Leno calls up someone named Jonah who's been sitting safely out of Pauler's reach for the entire segment. Leno tries to feed Jonah a bite of Pauler's loaf, but without missing a beat, Jonah waves the meatloaf off, saying, "I'm not eatin' that, man!" Priceless. Good call, Jonah, whoever you are.

That meatloaf looks almost as bad as Sandra Lee's slow cooker meatloaf. Hasn't Pauler heard about using racks to keep the meatloaf out of the grease? And of course, she was wearing all those rings and bracelets while working the meat (heh).

Yeah, I wondered how long it takes her minions to get the crud out of her jewelry.....But Rosie, Rosie, Rosie, how can you make fun of this? It's MEAT STUCK ON BREAD! Although I don't recall your recipe used that Velveeta sauce.

Bite Your Tongue. This is not meatstuckonbread. This is a TRAVESTY.

Actually, you should gussy up meatstuckonbread and post it - one of my books has something similar cut into little triangles as appetizers, and it looks really good. Something to do with all that leftover bread from the miniZo?
