["Put meat in a large bowl and add eggs, chopped onion and bell pepper.", "Then add half the tomato sauce, catsup, Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco. Add the spices.", "While holding the slices of bread, run cold water over them until wet - then squeeze them in your hand to get rid of excess water - add to meat.", "Now the fun part, use your hands to mix it all up - make sure it's really well mixed and that everything is evenly distributed.", "I don't use a loaf pan for this - I use a sheet cake or other large baking pan, and shape the mixture into a loaf that's about 2 inches thick - and probably 4 inches wide.", "Lay the bacon strips side by side down the length of the loaf.", "Bake at 350u00b0F for about 1 and half hours.", "Sauce: While meat is baking, mix the remaining tomato sauce, Worcestershire, Tabasco and catsup (I just leave half the tomato sauce in the can, then add the other ingredients to ""refill"" the can. (hope that makes sense).", "During last 20 minutes or so of baking - pour sauce over meat, continue baking until done."]
