Servings: persons

2 pounds ground beef (15 to 20 percent fat content)
1 medium yellow onion, grated on the large holes of a box grater (about 3/4 cup), excess liquid discarded
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (about 1 ounce)
1/3 cup ketchup
1/4 cup fine, unseasoned breadcrumbs
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh Italian parsley
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 medium garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
7 thick-cut bacon slices

1
Heat the oven to 375 degrees F and arrange a rack in the middle.
2
Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, and turn up the edges of the foil to catch the grease as the meatloaf cooks; set aside.
3
Place all of the ingredients except the bacon in a large bowl.
4
Using clean hands, mix everything until just combined (dont squeeze or overwork the mixture).
5
Transfer the mixture to the center of the prepared baking sheet.
6
Using your hands, form it into a 9-by-5-inch loaf.
7
Drape the bacon slices diagonally over the loaf, laying them side by side, trimming as necessary, and making sure that the entire surface of the loaf is covered.
8
Bake until the bacon is just starting to crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 160 degrees F, about 50 minutes.
9
Set the oven to broil and broil until the bacon is completely browned and crisp, about 3 minutes more.
10
Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack and let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
