This is a great variation to meat loaf. We loved the flavor that the sloppy joe mix added to the ground beef. I added cheese on top as you suggested...wonderful. A quick an easy meat dish to prepare when short on time. Thanks for sharing this, Polly!

I really enjoyed this recipe, as did the family. I made it for Sunday dinner. The sloppy joe sauce adds an incredible flavor, much better than tomato sauce. The only thing I added to the recipe was some cubes of american cheese (about 1 cup), which I add to almost every meatloaf I make. Thanks for posting this Polly, it was excellent.

It's OK. Quick and easy, but there are sauces out there that are just plain better than Manwich. Jumbo's and Stonewall Kitchens are two that come to mind. I have made this recipe, adding Jumbo's Jalapeno Sloppy Joe Sauce to it, and it turned out amazing!

My husband really enjoyed this recipe. I didn't care for it. It was too soupy and did not hold together at all. It did have a great flavor though.
