This meatloaf looks delicious! I love a good meatloaf sandwich. I love any meatloaf recipe that has CHILI SAUCE as an ingredient. I do have a question though; the 1 CUP OATMEAL, what kind of oatmeal should be used? I have packets of instant oatmeal. Cinnamon and sugar and maple syrup. Can those be used or should I use the NON-Instant oatmeal? I can't wait to make this. Great Friday night meal.

Does the bacon cook enough?

I made this last week and it was delicious! I did have one problem. The meatloaf just fell apart when I went to serve it. We just had to scoop it out with a spoon. Any suggestions?

This meatloaf is absolutely delicious!! My entire family eats it up. Its the only meatloaf i will be making now! It comes out beautiful. Easy to slice and serve! Sometimes i use onion powder instead of f chopped onion just for convenience and its good either way. Just so tasty! Thank you!!!

Due we cover with foil?
Marita
Just wondering if it is kid friendly with the chilli sauce?

Can we use a white sweet onion instead? Just curious? My husband loves meatloaf but loathes red onion. Thank you!!

WOW...excellent meatloaf and my hubby, the gourmet chef, loved it, too! Personally, I will add mushrooms next time, but that's me. Quite perfect just the way it is!
Walter
Chili sauce? Is this anything like Thai sweet chili sauce? Also, never used oatmeal in meatloaf before. Would Panko bread crumbs work instead?

This meatloaf was awesome! Hubby liked it, too! Would add a little horseradish next time, but that is personal preferance.
