Great meatloaf! Being that I cook infrequently, I found that it took more than 10 min. prep time, but the result wes well worth the effort. Did not have breadcrumbs on hand so substituted an equal amount of crushed saltine crackers. My wife even stated that this recipe was one of my best efforts. Thanks. Don

Just goes to show that 2 people will eat the same thing and have 2 different opinions. I really liked the topping, however I was hoping for a little bit more punch from the Chili and Cumin, a good offset for the sweeter top. I will make this again but add a dash more chili and possibley a tad more salt. It is nice to have a little different swing on the everyday run-of-the-mill meat loaf.

Wow this was a wonderful meatloaf. I did not add the Worcestershire sauce.(can not stand the smell of that stuff.) I did use the dry mustard in the ketchup on top. I did add more onions then it called for. but since I am an onion lover. I just hope there will be some leftovers for the husband to try. He is a truck driver so all I have to say is he had better get home fast.... Going to take some to work with me today. Thanks for the recipe I will make this again.

This was a lovely meatloaf, however, my husband didn't care for this recipe (I'm not a meatloaf person myself so he's the only one that ate it). I discovered that he thought the cumin and sage were a bit strong for his taste, he prefers cracker crumbs to bread crumbs, he missed the chopped green pepper in the recipe that I usually make, and he felt the meatloaf was too dense (don't know if this is due to the milk or the addition of 2 eggs because I use 1 egg in the recipe I make and it's not dense). I've discovered he's a one meatloaf recipe kind of guy and not willing to try new recipes (after giving this recipe a try). Please don't let my husband's comment deter you from trying this recipe, as it all came down to my husbands personal preference.

Oh, Karen was this ever good!!!! I didn't have any regular ketchup so I used 'hot' ketchup. My daughter even wanted it for breakfast the next day!! This is definately a keeper.

Finally, a really GREAT meatloaf. Should make some really GREAT sandwiches with the leftovers because it held its shape nicely and is moist. Love the sweet topping. Think I'll try a sandwich right now!! Thanks for the recipe - this was a winner!

Great recipe. Doubled the topping which we love. Added a little cayenne pepper for a kick. Looking forward to making it again! Served with mashed potatoes of course!

This is delicious! This is the first time that I have tried to make a meat loaf. Easy to eat, soft meat and tasty. I expected the 'pour on after' sauce to sink into the meat and when it didn't I poured on a tablespoon of hot water, popped it back into the oven, the sauce was still on the top but tasted wonderful. This was a favourite with all the family.

I have been searching for a good meatloaf recipe, and this is by far the best I've found. It satisfied my picky husband and even my four year old son!

For my first time making meat loaf I have to say you made me look so good! I had friends over for dinner and had a hard time figuring out what to make for them since they are extremely picky. They LOVED it! The only thing I would change next time is to cut the chili powder in half. They thought it tasted great so this is just my personal preference. Thank you so much for this recipe!
