How to Make Bacon Wrapped Meat Loaf
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- In a large bowl, gently combine 1.5 lbs ground beef, 1/2 cup ketchup, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon hot sauce, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon garlic salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Shape the meat mixture into a rectangular loaf (approximately 9x5 inches).
- Prepare a grill basket or use heavy-duty aluminum foil to create a grilling packet.
- Line the bottom of the grill basket/foil with 6-8 slices of bacon.
- Place the meatloaf on top of the bacon.
- Arrange 2 medium sliced tomatoes over the meatloaf and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Top with 1 medium sliced onion and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Cover the meatloaf completely with the remaining 6-8 slices of bacon.
- Close the grill basket or carefully seal the foil packet.
- Grill for 30-45 minutes, turning the basket or packet every 10 minutes, until the meatloaf reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) and the bacon is crispy. Use a meat thermometer to ensure doneness.
