Can you put ketchup into your meatloaf with milk then cook it?

Meatloaf is a dish made from ground meat, typically beef, mixed with various other ingredients such as bread crumbs, eggs, and seasonings. It is then formed into a loaf shape and baked in the oven.

Milk is not a typical ingredient in meatloaf, and it is not safe to cook raw meat in milk. This is because milk can contain bacteria that can cause foodborne illness. When meat is cooked in milk, the bacteria can multiply and contaminate the meat, making it unsafe to eat.

If you want to add milk to your meatloaf, you should do so after the meat has been cooked. You can add milk to the gravy that is served with the meatloaf, or you can use milk as a base for a sauce that you can pour over the meatloaf.

Here is a recipe for meatloaf that does not contain milk:
