My Favorite Meatloaf from Pioneer Woman
by Dee Siburt
serves: 6
 
Ingredients:
  1 C   Milk
  6 slices   White bread
  2 lbs   Ground beef
  1 C   Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
  1/4 tsp   Seasoned salt
  3/4 tsp   Salt
    Black pepper
  1/3 C   Flat-leaf parsley, minced
  4   Eggs, beaten
  10 slices   Bacon
  1.50 C   Ketchup
  1/3 C   Brown sugar
  1 tsp   Dry mustard
Directions:
  Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pour milk over the bread slices. Allow it to soak in for several minutes.

Place the ground beef, milk-soaked bread, Parmesan, seasoned salt, salt, black pepper, and parsley in a large mixing bowl. Pour in beaten eggs.

With clean hands, mix the ingredients until well combined. Form the mixture into a loaf shape on a broiler pan, which will allow the fat to drain. (Line the bottom of the pan with foil to avoid a big mess!)

Lay bacon slices over the top, tucking them underneath the meatloaf.

Make the sauce: add ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, and hot sauce in a mixing bowl. Stir together. Pour 1/3 of the mixture over the top of the bacon. Spread with a spoon.

Bake for 45 minutes, then pour another 1/3 of the sauce over the top. Bake for another 15 minutes. Slice and serve with remaining sauce.
