1 1/2 pounds hamburger
1 cup firm fresh white bread crumbs
1 1/2 cups coarsely shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup onion, chopped
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
2 teaspoons dry mustard
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
1 egg
1/4 cup ketchup
Cook the bacon for only 3 to 4 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, use your hands to gently but thoroughly mix together the hamburger, bread crumbs, 1/2 cup of the cheese, onion, mayonnaise, relish, mustard, salt, pepper, and egg. Pat the mixture into a shallow 2-quart baking pan. Spread the top of the loaf with the ketchup, then lay the bacon strips over the ketchup. Bake at 350 degrees until the loaf is firm and the bacon is crisp, 45 to 50 minutes, sprinkling the top with the remaining 1 cup cheese to melt during the last 5 to 10 minutes of baking. Let stand in dish for 10 minutes, then cut into squares to serve.
