1. Sauté Onions and Garlic
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a skillet over medium heat, add the extra-virgin olive oil, chopped onion, and minced garlic, seasoning with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook until softened and beginning to brown, about 8 minutes.
2. Prepare Meat Loaf Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the beaten eggs, bread crumbs, milk, and Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Add the ground chuck and mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
3. Bake Meat Loaf
Shape the meat mixture into a loaf and place on a foil-lined baking sheet. Drape bacon slices over the loaf, tucking the ends underneath. Bake for approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
4. Assemble Sandwiches
Let the meat loaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Spread mayonnaise on toasted white country bread, add meat loaf slices, a dollop of Oven-Roasted Tomato Jam or ketchup, and top with lettuce, arugula, or watercress.
