Preparation Steps

• Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a loaf pan.
• In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, chopped onion, 2 tablespoons of ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
• Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it in the prepared loaf pan.
• Arrange the bacon strips over the top of the meatloaf, overlapping them slightly.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the glaze ingredients: 0.5 cup ketchup, brown sugar, and Dijon mustard. Spread this glaze evenly over the bacon-wrapped meatloaf.
• Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) and the bacon is crispy.
• Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
