Everyone like the Asian flavor that the hoisin sauce imparts to this juicy meatloaf. Hoisin, a condiment that can be found in most grocery shops and is a combination of ketchup and soy sauce, provides a fantastic glaze for this meatloaf. Serve with steamed broccoli and rice. Sandwiches with the leftovers are delicious.

8.2.22 Followed this recipe as written, but it just didn’t have enough Asian flavor for me to justify its title. Baked in mini loaf pans, and I’m hoping that at least the leftovers will make decent meatloaf sandwiches. I will say that the texture was very good, moist, and tender. It was simply OK, a bit of a disappointment, but that could be mostly personal taste. Won’t be making this one again.
We all love this,been making it for years!
I used all beef (2 lbs), homemade dry Italian bread crumbs, and finely chopped celery leaves. A must to have the celery leaves as they enhance the taste. I love Hoisin sauce but used equal parts Hoisin and ketchup, 3 T. each. Next time, I might add an extra T. of Hoisin. I made 8 mini loaves.
My partner and I loved it. Very easy to make and so yummy!
Have made this 4 times, excellent each time. used equal parts beef and pork, 1lb each.
Too sweet – Maybe different brands of Hoisin are sweeter than others, but I didn’t use but maybe 3/4 of the called-for amount for the glaze and it was still too sweet. I also left out the celery, but otherwise followed the recipe.
Since my family refuses to eat meatloaves, but will scarf down meatballs like they’re going out of style, I made the recipe as directed, but made meatballs instead that I pan sauteed until they were brown on all sides. Then I turned down the heat, poured on the remaining basting sauce, and simmered until brown all the way through. Served them with flatbreads, jasmine rice, and steamed veggies. HUGE hit!! I also plan to make these as a twist on your usual cocktail BBQ meatballs.
Easy to make, and big thumbs up from wife and daughters! One suggested I even put MORE of the hoisin/ketchup topping on 🙂
very good recipe. I used ketjap manis, an Indonesian sauce, rather than Hoisin and tamari instead of soy-sauce because I am gluten free and everyone loved it. I substituted the celery for green pepper because it wasn’t in season in the Netherlands and difficult to find. I also added a little garlic powder and black pepper. Everyone is looking forward to the left-overs.
Omg soooo good..I just made this meatloaf its amazing, though I did make it with a few changes, i used 2lbs beef and 1lb hot ground italian sausage,I used oatmeal instead of bread and made the hoisin sauce myself. I also topped it with m&m meats Thai sweet and spicy sauce instead of what the recipe called for. Omg sooooo good
I have made this a couple of different ways now. I used low sodium soy sauce to cut out some of the salt. I used ground turkery instead of beef, which kept down alot of the fat in the bottom of the pan. Everyone that I have shared it with loves it and asks for more. I like the fact that its easy to make. Definatly recommend to anyone…
A different twist on an old favorite. I was a bit low on hoisin sauce so prepared the sauce with just under 1/2 C. ketchup and 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce. Very good. Will try more hoisin sauce and less ketchup in sauce next time. Edited addition – Made again w/2 T teriaki sauce in loaf (i/o hoisen sauce) then substituted BBQ sauce for ketchup with the hoisen sauce on top of loaf. Fabulous!
The picture with the red potatoes and corn is mine and am making it again tonight,, lil less hoisen posibly,, slices great fo sandwich..
Even with adjusting the hoisin and ketchup glaze, this was just too sweet for us. Thanks anyway!
I loved it!! it was so good. I wouldn’t change a thing!
My husband, who as a rule, doesn’t care for ginger, loved this. I adore ginger, but wasn’t crazy about the flavor combination! It was easy and unusual, though, and I’ll make it again just because my husband enjoyed it so much. Served it with roasted asparagus topped with toasted sesame seeds and jasmine rice.
Was a bit disappointed with this one. It was bland for our tastes. I think we’ll be sticking with some of our other meatloaf recipes. We enjoyed trying it though, so thanks for sharing!
Flavor and moistness. After the first time I made it the requests keep coming.
This was very, very tasty! I followed the recipe exactly except I used all ground beef and bread crumbs instead of broken up slices of bread. I’d definitely make this again one day!
Excellent recipe. I used ground turkey to make a bit lighter and instead of celery I used chopped water chestnuts. Added a great crunch and a bit more Asian flair!!
I LOVED this, but I’m a BIG fan of Hoisin sauce. My DD and DH thought the sauce was a little heavy, but what do they know?! Next time the only thing different I will do is cut the celery and onion up a lot finer. Other than that this is really good and different thanks for sharing.
