I use this recipe as a base, but I add 1/2 pound pork sausage, 2 Tablespoons chopped green pepper, and eliminate the topping. It's really good!

Followed the directions exactly and found it so-so at best. Family wasn't thrilled either. Won't be making this again. We like venison so that wasn't the issue. The recipe was pretty bland. Not awful, but no-one wants the leftovers for lunch tomorrow either.

This is probably one of the best uses for ground venison that I have ever made. This meatloaf was phenominal. I did 3 things different. I used crushed white cheddar cheezits instead of bread crumbs, I used a half of pound of pork since I only had 1 pound of venison thawed, and I smoked it in my Bradley smoker while I was making ribs. The mixture seemed a bit wet, but it cooked up good.

I had 2 pounds of ground venison and didn't know what I was going to do with it. I found this recipe and followed it exactly and was not disappointed. Only one thing I changed, added 4 slices of bread, torn into pieces, since mixture was too wet as it was. other than that, very tasteful.

I could tell it was venison, but hello! if you don't like venison, don't make stuff with venison in it! I just took it out (it's been 70 minutes) and the middle was still a little raw so it's back in the oven. I did try a bite off the side before I put it back in though and it's amazing! I made minor (very minor) changes to the recipe. I used a cup of crushed saltines and omitted the salt instead of dry bread crumbs, I used the equivalent of two eggs with the egg whites that come in the carton and I used extra tomato sauce and a little more pepper. I also don't like mustard sauces so I made a concentrated brown gravy and poured it over the top (still liquid, not thickened through cooking) and it was really good. So for those guys out there that don't like mustard, try some brown gravy! Also, it's super moist. And whoever said there were too many ingredients....what? This is minimal and took two minutes to get everything chopped (food processor), mixed (used my hands), and put in the oven. ***UPDATE**** While it was initially delicious, it did not refridgerate well. It looked/smelled like catfood, although it still tasted like the venison loaf. I was not able to get passed that, but when it first comes out of the oven it IS delicious, so just make sure you have a large enough group of people to finish it that evening.

Amazing, simply amazing! Ok, even after reading all of the rave reviews, I didn't have high hopes for this recipe. Everytime I make something with venison, you can usually tell. I followed the recipe exactly and it was fabulous. DH couldn't even tell that it was venison! Thanks for a great recipe!

A friend of mine, who is an advid hunter, had some ground venison in his freezer that he didn't know what to do with. I made this receipe....Oh my gosh!!! It was an immediate hit. We then tried it on a few friends, without telling them what it was made with, and they couldn't tell the difference. This is a wonderful recipe and nothing needs to be changed.

I made this dish for my husband, who is generally skeptical about meatloaf. He really loved it! However, I did make some changes. I added 1/4 pound of ground pork. I decreased the bread crumbs to about 1/2 cup and added 1/2 c of mirepoix (vs. just onions); cooked 4 slices of bacon, crumbled + added to the meat mixture. Insted of putting the tomato sauce IN the loaf, I mixed that with the brown sugar and vinegar (didn't use the mustard) and smeared that on top of the loaf. Wonderfully juicy!

A good meatloaf, but I guess we prefer ketchup to the mustard topping. Next time I will add ketchup to the top the last 10 minutes and see if it meets my husbands approval. Thanks for a good recipe.

I have to give this 5 stars! The only venison meatloaf that is moist and tasty. I have made many different recipes for venison and this is the best by far. Thank you for submitting it!

I am new to wild game. Never thought venison tasted so good. Hubby "declared" the best meat loaf ever. I used steak seasoning instead of pepper, for the spices. Mustard topping is a must.

I've never made Venison before so I took a chance with not only the recipe but cooking it as well. My fiance and his best friend loved it! I'm making it again for dinner tonight. The topping is so much better than traditional ketchup. No changes necessary and super easy to make! This is definately a keeper!

Excellent recipe. I did not use as much of the mustard mix as called for because we do not like mustard very well, it was very tasty without it, though. Next time I will use less bread crumbs because the loaf seemed to be a little mushy and mealy. Taste was excellent, though. Definitely a keeper. Thank you, Liz!

This was great! I'm not a big meatloaf fan & i've never made it before but had some venison to use. And my husband loved it, too! I changed some things- used 1/3 cup barbecue sauce and 1/3 cup chicken broth instead of tomato sauce. I also sauteed half the onions with 1 clove garlic. I used fresh-made breadcrumbs, too. Then, I mixed it all together and let it sit in fridge for all day before I cooked it- I think that gave the flavors time to meld. Great meatloaf!

This was awesome! I made the recipe exactly the way it was posted. I made new potatoes to go with it. My husband really does not prefer meatloaf but he took his first bite and was set back at how amazing it was. He went back two more times for seconds and thirds. It was also the first thing gone on my kids plates, they also wanted seconds. Phenomenal taste! Thanks for posting.

This recipe made me love venison! FANTASTIC! It doesn't taste at all gamey. It just tastes like really good meatloaf. My husband and I used to grit our teeth and oblingingly eat venison if served to us as guests. He and our boys went hunting for the first time ever and we now have a freezer full of ground venison. We'll be making lots of this meatloaf!

Keep in mind this is my first venison meatloaf. I didn't like the mustard sauce on top, we're ketchup or bbq sauce kind of people. Ha! However my sons had seconds. I will make it again, minus the brown sugar, mustard, vinegar topping.
