Peel and grate the potatoes or slice them into small pieces and soak them in water.

Drain the potatoes and layer three sliced potatoes at the bottom of a meatloaf pan.

Season the potatoes liberally with onion powder, salt, and black pepper in between the layers.

In a mixing bowl, add 2 pounds of lean ground beef.

Add a small diced onion to the ground beef.

Add 1 cup of grated stale breadcrumbs to the bowl.

Add 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of savory or thyme, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper to the mixture.

Add half a can of cream of mushroom soup to the bowl.

Add 1/2 can of water to rinse out the soup can and mix everything together until well combined.

Pour the meat mixture on top of the layered potatoes in the pan.

Cover the meatloaf with foil and place it on the top rack of the grill or in the oven.

Cook at 350-400°F for 45 minutes to 1 hour, checking that the internal temperature reaches 160°F.

After 15-20 minutes of cooking, check the meatloaf and add more mushroom soup if needed to keep it moist.

Continue cooking until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

Remove the meatloaf from the grill or oven and let it rest before slicing.
