Meatloaf can be very good, or very bad.

I like to add cornflake crumbs to mine - chopped onions are manditory along with chunks of galic, Worchestershire sauce along with a bit of chili powder. Salt and pepper, of course and I've added some Tai chili sauce at times with Elk burger, which was good, but too hot maybe for some. Of course, with beef, I only put Ketchup on top, not inside. I'd think that might make it too moist. Never tried it with bear - never will. I'm off bear now.

My mom in law makes wonderful beef meatloaf. Meatload sandwiches next day, if any left.
