Use Bread to Absorb Meatloaf Grease
I have found that one way to prevent meat loaf fats from settling on the bottom of your loaf pan is to place a piece of bread on the bottom. The meat loaf is not only easier to remove, but once the bread is removed your loaf is a little less fat-laden.

I make mine on top of raw potato slices. they absorb grease, and keep the loaf off the pan and crisps the bottom at the same time.

Thanks for that information. Never thought of doing that. Will certainly use your bread idea the next time I make meat loaf.

That's also a god way to hide the fact that you "let" a piece or two of bread go stale...you know, waste not, want not.

Tip: Use Bread To Absorb Meatloaf Grease
When baking a meatloaf, place a piece of bread under it to absorb the hamburger fat and keep it from sticking to the pan. Throw away the bread when finished.

That is a great idea! I have always wondered how to avoid that grease and the soggy stuff around the bottom of the loaf! Thanks! (10/10/2007)

I think the birds might really enjoy that piece of grease-soaked bread. (10/11/2007)

What a great tip! I have been making meat loaf for 30 years and never have thought of using bread in the pan. Dogs would probably love eating the grease-soaked bread, too. Thank you for posting, Momof1. (04/10/2008)
