How To Make Bacon Wrapped Whole30 Meatloaf:
The first thing you need to do is line the loaf pan with bacon. You want the bacon to hang slightly over the sides of the pan. That is because you will be folding those ends over the top of the loaf.
Next, add the meatloaf mixture into the loaf pan overtop the bacon. Then lay a few slices of bacon over the top of the loaf. After you have added a few extra slices, you can then fold those pieces hanging over the side on to the top of the loaf.
Cover the pan with a small piece of foil. This will help keep grease from getting all over the oven. Place in the center of the preheated oven and bake for an hour.
Then remove from oven, carefully place the loaf on a cookie sheet. I lined mine with foil as well as placed a few wooden skewers on it. I wanted to make sure I could drip as much grease off as I could.
After you have your loaf on the cookie sheet, place it back in the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes. This is to crisp up the bacon. If you like super crispy bacon, you can keep in even a little longer. Just make sure you keep an eye on it.
When the bacon is done crisping, remove from the oven. Allow it to sit and rest for about 5-10 minutes before slicing the bacon wrapped Whole30 meatloaf.
