6 servings
For the meatloaf
- 6 slices bacon
Chef's tipCook it like regular bacon. It's leaner and releases little fat, so add a splash of oil to the pan if needed. - ⅓ cup whole milk
Chef's tipUse an unsweetened variety so it won't add sweetness, especially in savory dishes. - ½ cup plain breadcrumbs
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- 2 lbs ground pork
Chef's tipUse a plant-based ground product and cook according to package directions; add oil only if needed. - 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Chef's tipIf the dish is baked or melted, cover it or keep the heat gentle - dairy-free shreds melt more slowly than dairy cheese. - 4 scallions, thinly sliced (white and green parts)
For the glaze
- ⅓ cup ketchup
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- ½ tsp dijon mustard
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat, turning occasionally, until crispy and the fat has rendered, 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, apple cider vinegar, and Dijon mustard until smooth. Set aside.
