This recipe is so good, but my pictures do not do this recipe/dish justice! It was so juicy and had SO much flavor because of the bacon. Please let me know if you make this! Check out my recipe for my meatloaf wrapped in bacon! It is delicious too!
Popular Questions About Meatloaf
*Where did meatloaf originate from? Meatloaf was mentioned in the Roman cookery collection Apicius as early as the 5th century. Meatloaf is a traditional German, Scandinavian, and Belgian dish, and it is a cousin to the Dutch meatball.
*Can meatloaf be frozen? Yes, it can! I have done this before if I make extra or have leftovers. Simply put it in a freezer bag and toss it in the freezer. I use my Food Saver machine to get all the air out and it will save much longer in the freezer that way.
*Can meatloaf be pink? No, it shouldn’t be. If it is still pink in the center, I would slice it open and put it back in the oven for about 10 minutes. You can also slice it and put it back in the oven or microwave it.
*Can meatloaf sit out overnight? No. I don’t recommend eating any meat that has been left out overnight.
*Can meatloaf be made ahead of time? Yes! I have done this before on many occasions! I make it the night before and just stick it in the fridge until the next day when I cook it.
