Bacon-Wrapped Meatloaf

This bacon-covered meatloaf is made with a blend of pork and beef and cooked in the classic loaf fashion. It’s very meaty and makes a great family dinner.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • ½ pound ground pork sausage
  • 1 sleeve crushed buttery round crackers (such as Ritz®)
  • 2/3 cup ketchup
  • ½ cup chopped onion
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 12 slices thick-cut bacon

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2
Combine beef, sausage, crackers, ketchup, onion, eggs, onion powder, and garlic powder in a large bowl until mixed thoroughly, using hands for best results. Form mixture into a loaf shape.

Step 3
Weave bacon strips into a basket weave pattern. Place meatloaf in the center; carefully lift and transfer to a loaf pan so that bacon is on the bottom and sides of the pan.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 1/2 hours, or until no longer pink in the center. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Allow to sit for 5 minutes before carefully flipping onto a platter.

Cook?s Note

I prefer to use tomato-vegetable juice cocktail (such as V-8 juice) in place of ketchup.
