Equipment

Ingredients

For the meat

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 pound Italian sausage
  • 1 large white onion diced
  • 2-4 cloves garlic minced

For the sauce

For the lasagna

  • 1 package lasagna noodles
  • 16 ounces ricotta cheese
  • ½ cup Parmesan grated
  • 1 pound fresh buffalo mozzarella torn into chunks, or use shredded

Instructions

For the meat sauce

  • Crumble the meats into a Dutch oven and brown over medium high heat. Drain fat if desired.
  • Add the onion and cook until softened.
  • Add the garlic and cook another minute.
  • Add in all of the sauce ingredients.
  • Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer and cook, covered, 1-2 hours.
  • Continue cooking with lid off for another hour, adding a bit more water if the sauce is too thick.

For the lasagna

  • Cook noodles per package instructions. Drain well.
  • Cut 1" off of each noodle end then cut each in half in the middle.
  • First, spread a little sauce out on the bottom of each pan.
  • Then, layer the ingredients in the following order. Try to divide the ingredients evenly between each layer, but you don't have to be picky about it.
  • Noodle half
  • Sauce
  • Ricotta
  • Mozzarella
  • Parmesan
  • Repeat for 3 total layers.
  • Fire up your gas grill for indirect cooking at 350 F.
  • Place loaf pans onto your grill over indirect heat.
  • Close the lid and cook 30 minutes or until the cheese is hot and bubbly.
  • Let rest 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

If your grill doesn't cook evenly, rotate the trays every 15 minutes.
