Nita's Note: I note that some of you are using game meat such as deer -- Deer is a very DRY meat. It is wise to HAVE some fat added to the deer -- especially to ground deer. Maybe 25 % fat, otherwise your results will be poor. I don't know about some of the other game meat some are using. Please consult and expert. The recipe is delicious as it stands! Enjoy!

I did not tell DH I made a change to the meatloaf, but he noticed with the first bite. I will definintely do this again, and even next time take the suggestion to make an extra recipe of sauce to warm up and put over the meat. A#1 super delicious!

I liked this but it was a little too vinegar-y for me. Thank you for the recipe.

Great recipe! I added a clove of minced garlic also. One thing to remember - the onion, no matter how finely chopped, will never fully cook in a meatloaf. It should be sauted first. It also brings out the sweetness of the onion. If you should use the garlic, as I did, saute that also with the onion.

One of the "best" meatloaves I've ever had. I can't believe I made a piggy of myself, and ate 2 large size portions. "Yum"!!! Hubby loved it too. I did make one change though. I only added 1/4 cup of evaporated milk. Anymore than that, would of been too much, and would of made this meatloaf mushy. I know this because, I've made a lot of meatloaves in my lifetime, since I "love" to eat them. I also used 4 Tbsp. of packed brown sugar. It was just the right amount. I patted my meatloaf in a circular shape, into a 9-inch aluminum pie tin; like I always do. The meatloaf gets done more evenly, and it's easier to get out of a pie tin, than a loaf pan. I baked mine for exactly 1 hr. & 15 minutes, then let it sit ontop of the stove for 5-7 minutes more, before slicing. Thanks for a wondeful tasting meatloaf recipe, Nita. "It's a winner"!!!
