Special Precautions and Tips:
- Ensure the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius) to prevent foodborne illness.
- If you don't have a loaf pan, you can shape the mixture into patties and cook them on a grill or griddle.
- For a crispier crust, brown the patties in a skillet before baking.
- Let the meatloaf rest before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender burger.
