This is a great, classic meatloaf, and the topping mixture is delicious! However, using all ground beef resulted in a very dense and sort of chewy meatloaf. I would advise using a "meatloaf mix" of either beef & pork or beef, pork and lamb. Many grocery stores sell a mix like this already pre-packaged, but you can always just buy them separately and mix them together. I used such a mix when I made this for the second time, and it resulted in a meatloaf that was moist and had a more pleasing texture. I did add about 15 minutes to the baking time. Other than that, I loved it and will make it again!

This was pretty good. I used fresh mushrooms and added a few basic seasonings: salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder, and just a little red pepper. I found the sauce a bit too thick, so next time I'd probably try thinning it out with some chicken broth.

This is phenomenal...I get requests for it all the time now! Sometimes I make it with blue cheese dressing, other times with ranch, it is great both ways! Leftovers taste great over french fries or baked potatoes!
