One of my issues with making meatloaf in the crockpot is what ground beef to use. If you use too fatty a grind, there is tons of nauseating grease that the meat sits in for hours. If you use too lean a grind, the meatloaf is dry and coarse. I used a leaner grind of sirloin and sure enough, it was dry. The flavor, however, I thought was quite good and very "pizza" like.
