The overall concept of the recipe is great. I love the thickened sauce on top and the texture of the meatloaf was great! It was a bit too sweet for my family’s taste, and I even cut the brown sugar back a bit. Ketchup is sweet without the extra sugar so I think I may try using tomato sauce instead of the ketchup next time and see if it fits us better.

My hubby, who “doesn’t do” leftovers, has happily eaten this 3 nights in a row… it’s simple and delicious and has already been declared our go-to meatloaf. Fantastic next-day sandwiches on Texas toast!!

This was not your plain old boring meatloaf. The homemade BBQ sauce definitely jazzed it up. It was very tender and juicy. This dish is a winner at our house and will become our standard meatloaf recipe.

I wanted to wait until I had a chance to try the meatloaf leftover before I gave my review, but my family ate it all before I had a chance…so I can only assume the leftovers rock! It was still so very good the first night – the BBQ sauce is phenomenal….I’ll never make that kind of sauce any other way ever again. We’ll be trying this out on the grill this summer, too. It holds together so very well and it just delicious! If others are finding that it falls apart – try working it with your hands for a longer period of time. Even after I know it’s mixed well, I continue to hand mix it for several minutes. I don’t know why that works for me, but I’ve never had a meatloaf fall apart since trying that. Reducing the sauce/liquid will only result in a dryer loaf, so give it some extra mix time and see if that helps. You won’t be disappointed in the taste!

Wonderful taste! I loved it. I put one of the meatloaves in the freezer with the sauce on it. I’ll see how it tastes in about 2 weeks.

This was hands down the best meatloaf ever!! I am a meatloaf liker…never cared for it too much growing up. This recipe has made me a meatloaf lover! The only thing I did differently was I used Heinz Chili Sauce instead of ketchup. Oh, and I added a few strips of bacon across the top of the meatloaf as it cooked just because that is how my mom always made it when we were young. Sadly there were NO leftovers so I guess I will just have to make it again soon.
