Mom's Secret Ingredient Meatloaf

This is the way I like my meat loaf, so lucky the whole family loves meatloaf. Growing up my mother always made the brown sugar glaze and you know I just don’t care for it sweet. I did do a few things different but didn’t mean to change it, it was just what I had. First I doubled Crotons instead of breadcrumbs, No cheese plus I added beef onion soup mix and added ½ the onions skipped the salt and added 1cup celery. For the topping, we used ½ ketchup and ½ chili sauce only because I was running out so we added a few dashes of our favorite hot sauce (Hangin’ with Hussein) at dinner we were all doing the Yum Yum song. So good ………. Thank you

This is a great meatloaf. I love the chili sauce ingredient (i used generic brand chili sauce and it still tasted great) and instead of using a food processor, i just cut the bread up by hand. I used sharp cheddar cheese, because that is what i had, and it turned out very tasty! a good change to my normal brown sugar meatloaves.

This just became my family meatloaf recipe. It was great tasting and very moist. I used the ketchup with cheddar cheese and we loved it. I didn't even have trouble getting the center done by doing 2 loaves in a large pan. Thanks for posting the recipe.

This meatloaf was awesome! Very moist and flavorful! The chili sauce was a wonderful addition. My husband loved it, it also makes great meatloaf sandwiches the next day!
