Can I freeze this meatloaf? Yes, wrap tightly in foil and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge before reheating.
Can I make it ahead? Assemble the meatloaf and wrap with bacon, then refrigerate for a few hours before baking.
Is the bacon necessary? It adds flavor and keeps the meatloaf juicy, but you can bake without it if preferred.
