    I have a family of 6, and all but me have very big appetites. I've made this twice now and my kids love it. I usually have to double recipes and even still we might polish it all off with someone still wanting more, this is not the case with this meatloaf - it is enormous! I have a normal sized meatloaf left over. The tomato gravy is great, although the 10-12 minute time in the recipe after adding the flour seems wrong to me and I've both times only done about 2 minutes. We like to serve it on top of Texas toast!

    The tomato gravy makes this meal. Goes great with mashed potatoes.

    It was very tasty and full of flavor. It was not dry or nasty tasting due to fat contents. Loved the fried onion and gravy.

    did not follow the meatloaf recipe or onion recipe but the gravy was awesome! used 22 oz of chix stock because that's all i had on hand and diced tomatoes with roasted garlic instead of whole tomatoes.

    I had never done meatloaf because I thought it was too difficult but I tried this recepy and it was very simple as well as amazing. My husband loved it. We also loved the friend onions.

    Everyone loved it, including my 3yr old which is very picky. I basically ended up making 2x meatloaf and placed one in the freezer for another time. If you're going by the serving size of 4-6, then these have to be hearty eaters and you don't have to cook tomorrow :-. Easy to make, tastes great.

    My friends and family LOVE this meatloaf - even my friend who doesn't like meatloaf. Love the gravy. Don't over cook - also freezes well. The gravy doesn't freeze well, however. Be sure to do the onions too. They make that last little bit of positive difference.

    For those of you who are scared off by the portion size, I have adjusted this recipe and use a total of two pounds of meat. It is moist and flavorful everytime.My family loves the tomato gravy so much that we have used it as a base for soup with a little pasta and some veggies. Yum!
