Cooked meatloaf that has been thawed in the refrigerator can be kept for 3 to 4 days before cooking.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>How far ahead can you make meatloaf before cooking?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nPrepare the meatloaf and form it into a loaf pan a few days beforehand. When you are ready to bake, cover and keep in the freezer. Before baking, let it to room temperature. The meatloaf sauce may also be prepared in advance and kept in the refrigerator for a few days.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>How can you tell if meatloaf is spoiled?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nWhen left out at room temperature for longer than two hours, cooked meatloaf should be thrown away because bacteria may quickly develop at temperatures between 4°C and 60 °C. If a cooked meatloaf starts to taste, look, or smell funny, or if mold starts to grow, it should be thrown out.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"How Long Can Uncooked Meatloaf Stay In The Fridge Uncooked meatloaf can stay safe in the fridge for about 3 days if it is cooked …<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":32154,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"disable-in-feed":false,"article-schema-type":"","disable-critical-css":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11,14],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/powerupcook.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17389"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/powerupcook.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/powerupcook.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/powerupcook.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/powerupcook.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17389"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/powerupcook.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17389\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":81453,"href":"https:\/\/powerupcook.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17389\/revisions\/81453"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/powerupcook.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/32154"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/powerupcook.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17389"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/powerupcook.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17389"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/powerupcook.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17389"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
