Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Jimmy Dean hot spicy pork sausage
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 medium size onion, chopped
  • 2 teaspoon garlic, chopped
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 8 oz tomato sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
  2. Place parchment paper in a 10-inch loaf pan.
  3. In a large mixing bowl combine all the ingredients, except the bacon and cheese curds.
  4. Line the bottom of the loaf pan with half the bacon slices. Each slice should over lap each other and overhang on the sides. Press half of the meatloaf mixture into the pan. Make a groove with your hands in the middle of the loaf. Then add a row of cheese curds pressing down into the meat. Then put the rest of the meatloaf mixture on top of the cheese curd layer.

  5. Using the parchment paper that was lined in the pan flip the meat loaf onto another sheet of parchment paper to finish wrapping the meatloaf.
