Bacon & Double Cheeseburger Meatloaf




Source of Recipe


Internet


List of Ingredients




4 slices bacon
1 1/2 lbs. lean ground chuck or ground round
1 cup firm fresh white bread crumbs
1 cup coarsely shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (4-ozs.)
1 large sweet onion, such as Vidalia, chopped
2 tbsp. mayonnaise
2 tbsp. India or other sweet pickle relish
2 tsp. dry mustard
3/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper
1 egg
1/4 cup ketchup

Recipe



Preheat the oven to 350ºF.

In a medium skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until limp and some of the fat is rendered, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the bacon from the skillet and reserve it.

In a large mixing bowl, use your hands to gently but thoroughly mix together the meat, bread crumbs, 1/2 cup of the cheese, onion, mayonnaise, relish, mustard, salt, pepper, and egg.

Pat the mixture into a shallow 2-qt. baking pan. Spread the top of the loaf with ketchup, then lay the bacon strips over the ketchup.

Bake until the loaf is firm and the bacon is crisp, 45 to 50 minutes, sprinkling the top the loaf with the remaining 1/2 cheese to melt during the last 5 to 10 minutes of baking.

Let the meatloaf stand in the baking dish for 10 minutes, then cut into squares to serve.
