For the meatloaf
- 6 slices bacon
- ½ cup plain breadcrumbs
- ⅓ cup whole milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder

Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat, turning occasionally, until the fat has rendered and the bacon is crisp, about 8–10 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain, then crumble into small pieces once cool enough to handle.

In a small bowl, stir together the ketchup, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.
