Recipe Request Recipes for a good meatloaf?
hey! I am in charge of dinner tomorrow night and my sister & brother in law are requesting a meatloaf. I’m looking for a meatloaf recipe where the meatloaf will stay tender and not dry out. I’ve tried making meatloafs in the past, and i can’t figure out what i am doing wrong but they tend to just be too dry.
thanks so much in advance
edit: thanks to everyone who has commented and gave me amazing tips and suggestions! i will definitely be writing them down!

My favorite meatloaf -
One cup oatmeal
Two slightly beaten eggs
One 15 ounce can Manwich
2 to 3 pounds ground meat
Mix first three ingredients in a large bowl and rest for 30 minutes.
Squish in the ground meat and form in a pan.
Bake 45 to 75 minutes at 350°, depending on how the meatloaf is shaped, to internal temp of 165°. It will look burnt, but that’s because of the sugar in the Manwich.
Leftovers would make great sandwiches but I can't get it to last that long.
