Ingredients
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup ketchup
1 lb ground beef
8 slices bacon, finely chopped
1 small onion, finely diced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
4 slices bacon, cooked until crispy
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped bacon, diced onion, breadcrumbs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Transfer the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a loaf.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Place the cooked bacon slices on top of the cheese.
Return the meatloaf to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the meatloaf is cooked through.
Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Enjoy.
