Ingredients
-
1 tablespoon oil
-
2 slices bacon, diced
-
1 medium onion, chopped
-
3 cloves garlic, minced
-
3 slices bread, soaked in
-
milk, then crumbled
-
1/2 kg ground pork
-
1/2 kg ground beef
-
2 eggs, beaten
-
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
-
1 (27 g) packet onion soup mix
-
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
-
1 teaspoon dried thyme
-
1/4 cup tomato ketchup
-
1/4 cup commercial barbecue sauce
-
1 tablespoon mild chili sauce
-
-
1/4 cup tomato ketchup

3 tablespoons chopped pickled jalapeno peppers
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a fry pan, add the bacon, onion and garlic and cook over a moderate heat until the onion is softened.
- Remove from the heat.
- Mix the remaining ingredients and the onion, bacon mix together in a large bowl-I find this best done by hand.
- Place in a 9inch long by 3 inch wide and deep loaf dish, patting down very firmly and shaping the top nicely.
- Bake in a moderate oven for 1 1/2 hours, draining any accumulated fat about half way through.
- Mix the topping ingredients together, spread over the meatloaf and return to the oven for the final 30 minutes of cooking.
- Allow the meatloaf to stand about 10 minutes before slicing.
