I made this last night last night and it was delicious!! I also made Cheese and Potato Pancakes by Sydney Mike. It was such a wonderful easy recipe to do, it turns out moist and light, I served it with gravy as my men love their gravy. It was a perfect meal and combo. My teenage son had just played his first football match with his team and they won 8-2, so a perfect meal for a champ. He loved both of the recipes and had seconds. A definite winner!!!

I omitted the sage and nutmeg for personal preference, otherwise made as directed. This is a good meatloaf recipe that has lots of flavor. The liquor really adds something different to plain old meatloaf. Thanks for posting.

Scaled back for 3 servings using 600g (1 1/3lb) of ground beef as that was what was in my package (had enough for 4, DM demanded the 4th for lunch but DS beat her to it and made himself a sandwich). This fitted into my loaf tin just right. Baked for 45 minutes at 170 C in a fan forced oven. I used a pinch of ground sage but all other herbs were fresh and omitted the port wine as I had none. Served with a peppered mushroom gravy and mashed potatoe and steamed vegetables. Thank you Sydney Mike. Made for Who Am I.
