  • Add some moisture. To keep your ham loaves moist, add some liquid, such as milk, water, or broth. You can also add some eggs or bread crumbs to help bind the mixture together.
  • Season your meatloaf well. Use a variety of spices, herbs, and seasonings to flavor your meatloaf. Some popular options include garlic, onion, salt, pepper, paprika, and thyme.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf. Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Bake the meatloaf at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy crust and juicy interior.
  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing. This will help to keep the juices in the meatloaf.
