Very good! A different take on your traditional meatloaf! The hot wing sauce gives it a “kick” and the blue cheese adds a very unique flavor! The only change I make -I usually use a meatloaf mix of beef and pork. Joyce Moynihan, Volunteer Field Editor.
Absolutely delicious! Everyone loves it! I do substitute feta cheese for the blue cheese because I’m allergic but just delicious!
I only changed two things in this recipe: I used a meatloaf mix instead of beef and I added extra blue cheese (personal preference). We thought this was a very tasty meatloaf. I didn't notice that the meatloaf itself was too soggy (seemed to form a loaf-shape fine), but after cooking it for the first 20 minutes, I saw that this we had a slight problem... all the juices were gathered around the meatloaf and the meat itself wasn't drying out. After the second 20 minutes, I put some aluminum foil over top and increased the oven to 375. I wouldn't say that the meat loaf turned out mushy, but it definitely wasn't staying in a loaf-shape anymore. Not sure how I can remedy this in the future, other than by adding in more panko (like the previous reviewer suggested) or by cooking it in a roasting pan so the juices aren't touching the meatloaf. Because it was a bit unformed, we actually spooned it over some mashed potatoes. I think I'll probably just do that next time. The combined taste was SO GOOD. If you like the buffalo wing taste, I'd definitely recommend giving this meatloaf a try.
I really liked this as a change of pace from traditional meat loaf. I had to add in more panko because the meat loaf was initially too soggy. The flavor was excellent.
Fixed this for my family because I like trying new things as well as my mother does. Actually the men liked this as well so onward we go.
The basic meatloaf recipe was very good. The wings sauce was a nice change of pace, but the blue cheese made it a little too bold for us. Of course, the amount of blue cheese can be changed to suit your taste. I'll probably stick to a more traditional recipe most of the time, but it is worth a try if you like these flavors.
