10 Reviews of Martha Stewart's All American Meatloaf

I wish I could rate this recipe higher - it's all there in terms of ingredients but my family just didn't enjoy it. My kids kept remarking that it tasted 'strange' and I think it must have been the dry mustard - can't for the life of me think what else it could have been. Anyway, only DH and I ate our meatloaf and we have a lot of leftovers. The kids got a cheese sandwich (2 of the 3 kids are normally not picky at all). It did make a light meatloaf, texturally, which both DH and I liked.

    Don't be daunted by the seemingly long list of ingredients: this is a wonderfully flavoursome meatloaf, made so flavoursome because of the wonderful blend of what are essentially really quick to put together ingredients. My favourite meatloaves are those made with a mixture of meats and this one was no exception. I omitted the Tabasco sauce, I used 6 cloves of minced garlic (personal taste preferences) and I used half water and half merlot when cooking the onions (next time I'll use all merlot), but otherwise I made this exactly to the recipe. Thank you for sharing this recipe. It’s one I'll certainly be making again!

    This is my favorite meatloaf to make. I love the preparation and I love how it's cooked. The traditional loaf pan style just doesn't cut it compared to this!! I have been making this dish for over 6yrs now.. stole the recipe from my moms Martha cookbook (that I bought her for x-mas.. hehe)

    This is my favorite meatloaf ever! I don't like veal tho, and I rarely have pork around so I usually just use ground beef and it's completely delicious. I also happen to agree with Peg Bracken that "rosemary is for remembrance" and not food, so I leave that out, too The topping is pretty gross looking when you mix it up, but have faith-- once cooked, it tastes great!

    I made this for my boyfriend who was married to a gourmet cook for 22 years and he raved about it. Way to go Martha!

    This has been my go-to meatloaf recipe since I read it on her website many years ago. We love it. I substitute ground white turkey for the veal, that probably helps a little with the fat per serving, which is scary, but also I think it serves 8 or more.

    My kids love this and ask for it if I don't make it for a while. I replace the veal with ground turkey and use barbecue sauce instead of the ketchup, mustard, and brown sugar just to make it easier. I also put the onion in the loaf instead of going to the extra trouble to garnish. But still very good.

    This is a great meat loaf. I had it the first time many years ago when it appeared in martha stewart living. My husband repeatedly ask for me to make it.
