If there’s one thing all moms can agree on, it’s that we all love a good home-cooked meal.
How long should the meatloaf rest before slicing it?
I would say no more than 30 minutes. This is enough time to allow the flavors to blend together.
How do I keep the meatloaf from falling apart?
You need to use binders to help your meatloaf stay together. These binders are ingredients such as eggs, milk, bread crumbs, oatmeal, or even rice. Packing the meatloaf tightly into the loaf pan will also help the meat retain its shape.
