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
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons parsley
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
  • 8 oz tomato sauce
  • 1 cup pork rinds, crumbs
  • 1 pound bacon
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese curds

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. Fold over the bacon that is overhanging.
  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. Take the rest of the bacon slices to wrap the other side and sides. The meatloaf at this point should have bacon on all sides. Tuck the bacon pieces in so it is nice and neat and then return the meatloaf back into a lined parchment paper loaf pan.
  6. Bake the meatloaf at 350ºF for one hour and 10 min or until the internal temperature reaches 165 ºF. It will be full of grease when done. Take out the meatloaf onto another platter and let it cool 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Press the cheese curd into the center of the meatball, sealing the meat around the cheese while shaping into a ball. Then place each meatball on the parchment paper.
