My mother, who claims she can detect venison in any recipe, didn't have a clue it was in this tender meat loaf until we told her after dinner. She raved about this flavorful main dish the entire time she was eating it! -Liz Gilchrist, Bolton, Ontario

not the consistency i wanted and needed some fat, our venison was too lean, may add some sausage or ground pork next time.

Actually, I've been making this recipe since it appeared in 2009, In fact, I've tried other recipes over this time, but none compare to the wonderful taste of this recipe. Not one person EVER realized it was deer meat; the texture is remarkable! And, it is sooo easy to make beforehand.The only additions: add 2 tbsp of roasted pepper and grated carrot (for MORE sweetness)and some chunky applesauce for moistness. I use a large storage bag: add meat & everything in AM, & in PM thro it in pan and oven.
