I followed the recipe exactly, except to use the ketchup mixture on top, since that's the way I've always had meatloaf. My husband took a bite of it and asked what was in it - he couldn't figure it out, took several more bites, than asked me if there was fish in it..! I assume that was the ginger he could taste, since all the other ingredients are standard to meatloaf. I will not be making this one again!

This was a great recipe. I read the other reviews and made a few small changes though... I only had 1 1/4 lbs of turkey, so I changed the ingredient quantities to make 6 serving sizes instead of 8. I didn't go down to 5 serving sizes because I added 2 shredded carrots and 2 chopped celery stalks and 1/4 cup of chopped onion. I soaked the bread crumbs in the milk as suggested. I only had plain bread crumbs, so I added 2 teaspoons of italian seasoning to the bread crumbs. I also added a pinch of garlic powder. I used shredded cheddar and monterey jack cheese because that's what I had. And finally, I added 1 tbsp of brown sugar to the ketchup. I only cooked to 160 degrees (which took almost an hour) and let it rest under foil to 165. The meatloaf was flavorful and moist. I will definitely make it again.

This is the best meatloaf I have ever made. I put the brown sugar and ketchup on top of the meatloaf. It was perfect!

I modify most recipes as in my 35 years of cooking it is difficult for me to have a set recipe because I try new things. Because I have kids that do not like certain vegetables I continuously place the veggies in the meat. So along with the garlic and onions, I also placed in one small carrot. Also I have always added some ketchup and dark mustard into the meatloaf to add flavor. For the top sauce I add a 1/4 cup of bourbon to spruce it up a bit. The kids eat it up.

Too sweet. Per others' suggestions, I cut the brown sugar in half, but still found it to be too sweet. The texture & moistness of the meat were outstanding, so I'll use the meat part of the recipe again, but use a different topping.

My hubby raved about this one,it is one of TWO fave meatloaf recipes we are keeping! I have never liked meatloaf ever,until now. Kudos to the member suggestions of laying slices of bread in the bottom of the pan to absorb grease(also keeps the bottm from overcooking). We also love to cook the brown sugar/ketchup mix on top and sides of the meatloaf with small holes poked in to let the good stuff cook right in!

Ok so I like to take pride in my various meatloaf concoctions....I can use just about anything kicking around and make it tasty. But I had time to try someone elses recipie so I gave this one a try. My husband said at the end of the meal that he has to say " that is the best meatloaf you have ever made" I used bread crumbs instead of saltines and like some of the other reviews I prefer my meatloaf to bake on a cookie sheet so that the edges are nice an crispy and not sitting on the grease. I put the glaze on top and it was awesome!!!!

As a newlywed, I made a terrible meatloaf. Due to my husbands reaction to that, I've waited 15 years to attempt meatloaf again. If this one wasn't good, I would never make meatloaf again. Well, this recipe was delicious and more of this meatloaf will be in our future. I put the sugar/ketchup mix on top of the loaf instead of at the bottom. It came out perfect.

I am no cook and this was easy, delicious and received RAVE reviews from our dinner guests. My husband and high doubts I could pull this off and all he kept saying through dinner was how good it was, really really good. I did use most of the suggestions to alter the recipe a little. I put the sauce on top only, not in the bottom of the pan, I used bread in the bottom to soak up the grease, used a quarter onion diced and onion soup mix, and adopted a few other ideas too. We paired with corn on the cob and mashed potatoes. It was a treat and I would make it again!

All 4 of my kids cleaned their plates!! I did onion soup mix instead of onion. Put bread on the bottom and did the sauce on top. I did have to pour off grease once, but that was to be expected when cooking hamburger meat.. It is definitely smart to use 93/7 fat.. Otherwise you will have alot of grease! I made extra of the brown sugar/ketchup/worchestire sauce and my hubby used it like a gravy. He loved it! Got to love a meal that makes you look like a Pro!

My 4 year old son, 1 year old daughter and my husband and I flat out dominated this meatloaf and then some. I made it with my mashed potatoes, there were no leftovers. I, too, did the mixture of brown sugar, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce and poured it on top. I put 2 slices of bread on the bottom and gave it a terrific crunch. My first meatloaf was the best!

This is my husbands favorite meatloaf. Every time I make a meatloaf I use a different recipe,when I made this he said "That is the ONE!" The only thing I did different was use bread crumbs instead of the saltine crackers.

I made the recipe with some slight changes as mentioned by other reviewers, and after making it will make 2 more changes. Hmmm... after all these changes, it almost becomes a brand new recipe. Anyway, this is what I did: 1. I added 2 slices of bread to the bottom of the pan (before adding the meatloaf mixture in) to absorb the fat while it baked. I just tossed the bread afterwards as the other reviewer mentioned. 2. Instead of cracker crumbs, I used 3 slices of bread, which I cut up into tiny pieces. 3. I used 1/4 cup of milk as others mentioned, but did use 2 eggs as the recipe called for. 4. Added 1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce to the meatloaf mixture. 5. I made the glaze using: 1/2 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and 1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce. I added this to the top of the meatloaf about 30 minutes into baking, so that it would glaze over nicely without overcooking it. The result: The glaze was awesome, and the meatloaf was good. I thought the meat was a little tough. I used extra-lean ground beef and I wonder if there simply wasn't enough fat. Perhaps next time I'll try something slightly less lean. Another thought was that I only used 1/4 cup of milk instead of 3/4 cup as the recipe called for. Perhaps bringing up to 3/4 cup of milk would help. One of the biggest changes I would make would be to fry the onions in a bit of olive oil prior to adding it to the meatloaf mix. I added the chopped onions raw (per the recipe), but they didn't cook all the
