This was a very moist and delicious meatloaf. Added pepper and chopped green pepper to it. I trick I learned a long time ago when cooking a meatloaf in the crockpot is to make five strips of aluminum foil and criss-cross them in the crockpot with strips going up the sides. Place the meatloaf onto of aluminum foil. When the meat is done, you can lift it out easily.

This was great! Moist, well seasoned and beautiful when done. I spread it flat in the crockpot then tucked in the sides (so it didn't burn on the edges) then I formed a hole in the center (so it would cook all the way through). My whole family loved it.

Great meatloaf!!! I didn't have a chance to use the topping this time, but I will next time. LOVE, love, love the idea of making it in the crockpot! I used 2 strips of heavy duty foil I placed in the crockpot before the meatloaf to help get it out in one piece (it worked!!) I did use season salt instead of regular and added some garlic as my family LOVES garlic. The leftovers slice wonderfully for sandwiches. This is surely going to be repeated!
