How to Make Bacon Wrapped Pork Meatloaf

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 9x5 inch baking pan with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup milk, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper until well combined.
  3. Add 2 pounds ground pork, 1 cup bread crumbs, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley to the bowl. Gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  4. Transfer the meat mixture to the prepared baking pan and shape it into a 9x5 inch loaf.
  5. Arrange 1 pound of apple-smoked bacon slices evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
  6. Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center registers 160°F (71°C).
  7. Remove from oven and let rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
